The Crow & the Butterfly

I painted your room at midnight So I'd know yesterday was over I put all your books on the top shelf Even the one with the four leaf clover Man I'm getting older I took all your pictures off the wall And I wrapped them in a newspaper blanket I haven't slept in what seems like a century And now I can barely breathe Just like the crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer sky When you and I were gettin' high as outer space I never thought you would slip away I guess I was just a little too late Your words still serenade me And your lullaby's, they won't let me sleep And I've never heard such a haunting melody Oh it's killing me You know I can barely breathe Just like the crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer sky When you and I were gettin' high as outer space I never thought you would slip away I guess I was just a little too late Just like the crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer sky When you and I were gettin' high as outer space I never thought you would slip away Just like the crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer sky When you and I were gettin' high as outer space I never thought you would slip away I guess I was just a little too late Just a little too late --- The Crow & the Butterfly - Shinedown
