Blame it on the Butterflies

from A Million Ways to waste a Summer by Michael Ellis

/

lyrics

just about the midnight hour
see the bottles on the table
thinking bout the times we had
and the happy faces

just about the memory
like a photograph
doing the impossible
was not so hard

fly out of this heart
and find me my counterpart
so if shes out there i believe
that someday she'll be mine

you can't blame it on the butterflies
cause this is something different
they don't give you no alibis
they just give a hint in life

just about the sweetest dreams
and the deepest eyes
about the wine and tv nights
and the wind of summer

just about the fairest song
all the violins
all conductors going mad
because of love

fly out of my heart
i need a chance to start
so if shes out there i believe
that someday there'll be 'us'

can't blame it on the butterflies
cause this is something different
they don't give you no alibis
they just give a hint in life

you can't blame it on the butterflies
cause this is something different
they can dry your tear-stained eyes
they'll be there for you
can't blame it on the butterflies
cause this is something different
take the reason for your sighs
catch them if you can
