i tried little butterfly not to hurt you
so i guess that this might come as some surprise
i'm gonna take this train even though i never thought i'd desert you
i've got a ticket and i'm just biding my time

i don't really want to work it out
and i can only wonder what you're all about

i tired little butterfly to protect you
it was asking for disaster but i guess that's just the way it goes
if it's anything know that i will never forget you
today it hurts but tomorrow it won't even know

i don't really want to work it out
because i can only wonder what you're all about
we talk and talk it's all my fault and still i know it's true
that i don't know much but i know i don't need you

and everything's a little better without you
