Poor Butterfly Songtext
von Frank Sinatra

Poor butterfly
′Neath the blossoms waiting
Poor butterfly
For she loved him so

The moments pass into hours
The hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears
She murmurs low

The moon and I
Know that he'll be faithful
I′m sure he'll come to me
By and by

But if he don't come back
Then I never sigh or cry
I just must die
Poor butterfly


Poor butterfly
′Neath the blossoms waiting
Poor butterfly
For she loved him so

The moments pass into hours
The hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears
She murmurs low

The moon and I
We know that he′ll be faithful
I'm sure that he′ll come
To me by and by

But if he don't come back
Then I never never sigh or cry
I just must die
I′m a butterfly

Poor butterfly
'Neath the blossoms waiting
Poor butterfly
For she loved him so


The moments pass into hours
And the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears
She murmurs low

The moon and I
Know that he′ll be faithful
I'm sure he'll come
he′ll be here by and by

But if he don′t come back
Then I never sigh or cry
I just must die
Poor butterfly

I must die
