Drunken Butterfly Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Smile like the sun
Back over time
Crazy on you
Pleasure is mine

[Chorus]
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?

[Verse 2]
You're comin' through
Even it up
Goin' too far
Try to understand

[Chorus]
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?

[Bridge]
Whisper that kisses your ear
I'll tell you what I fear
Whisper that kisses your ear
I'll tell you what I fear

[Verse 3]
Come on home
Just ain't fair
In the name of rock and roll
Where love dies
Couldn't find a soul
Tell it like it is
Deep down inside
Drunken butterfly

[Chorus]
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, what's your name?
