my request, woohoo

the butterfly and the tree.
Lyrics - Todd Sheaffer

we were in a field a mile from nowhere
the sun up high
in a field, the grass was flowin’
she looked me in they eye

hey, she said, I’ve a fantasy
I’ll paint you & you paint me
ooh, I said, what shall we be?
she said, I’ll be a butterfly
you’ll be a tree

green & blue & red & yellow
the colors dried
I looked at her, she looked at me
we laughed into the sky

ooh, she said, look & see!
I am a butterfly, you are a tree
yes, I said, I agree
you are a butterfly
I am a tree

create a day up on a mountain
the world below
time was easy, time was lazy
movin’ nice & slow
bird flyin’ off into the blue
troubles far away
sweet you were my lovely, lovely
on that perfect day

ooh, she said, I feel so free
I am a butterfly, you are a tree
yes, I said, and a lucky tree
of all of the forest
you land on me

(do you love me
baby I love you
when you love me
the way that you do)
