"Little Picture Of A Butterfly" lyrics

"Little Picture Of A Butterfly"

After all that time went by
All I get is a butterfly
A little picture of a butterfly
Guess that's your funny way of saying goodbye

Soulmates, what a pretty thought
But you either do or you do not
I used to think that we were meant to be
I used to believe and make believe

Now you're just a pretty ghost
And all the psychics say there is no hope
Now I don't know what to think
Guess I'm going out for a drink

Guess I'm smoking cigarettes
I'm driving around in a red corvette
Guess I'm single in a little black dress
Like some widow to this big old mess

Guess I'm morally impure
Guess your love is not a cure
Guess I should've known better
Guess I'm throwing out that sweater

After all that time went by
All I get is a butterfly
A little picture of a butterfly
Goodbye, goodbye
