[Verse 1]
You left your cup by the sink
Half a spoon, half a lie
I watched the blue on your sleeve
Fade out under the sky
Your name still rides on my phone
Like a ghost I can’t delete
I keep the door on the chain
Like you might still come to eat
[Pre-Chorus]
I said I’d be fine
I said it twice
But your shadow stays
In the frame of my night
[Chorus]
Love you til the day I die
(til the day I die)
While you’re loving another
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Butterfly fly away
Love you til the day I die
(til the day I die)
I hold the ache, I let it stay
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Butterfly fly away
[Verse 2]
I saw your scarf in the store
Same red, same thread, same tear
I almost called out your name
Then I swallowed down the fear
Now my mirror learns my face
Without the version you knew
Still I catch myself reaching
For a hand that won’t come through
[Pre-Chorus]
I said I’d be done
I said be strong
But the quiet in here
Keeps singing your song
[Chorus]
Love you til the day I die
(til the day I die)
While you’re loving another
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Butterfly fly away
Love you til the day I die
(til the day I die)
I hold the ache, I let it stay
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Butterfly fly away
[Bridge]
If you ever miss my door
If your heart starts to break
You’ll know I was the one
Who loved you all the way
But I won’t hold your wing
I won’t beg you to land
I’ll just watch you turn to sky
In the lines of my hand
[Chorus]
Love you til the day I die
(til the day I die)
While you’re loving another
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Butterfly fly away
Love you til the day I die
(til the day I die)
I hold the ache, I let it stay
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Butterfly fly away
[Outro]
Love you til the day I die
Butterfly fly away
Fly away
Fly away
