Lyrics

Snippet #1

Happiness is a butterfly
Try to catch it like every night
It escapes from my hands
Into moonlight

Every day is a lullaby
I hum it on the phone like every night
And sing it for my babies on the tourlyfe

Snippet #2

Happiness is a butterfly
We should catch it when dancing high
Lose myself in the music
Baby

Every day is a lullaby
Try to catch it like lightning-night
Sing it into my music
I'm crazy

If he's a serial killer
Then what's the worst
That could happen to a girl
Whose already hurt
I'm already hurt

If he's as bad as they say
Then I guess I'm cursed
Looking into his eyes
I think he's already hurt
