"Blue Brush-Footed Butterfly" lyrics

"Blue Brush-Footed Butterfly"

By the time she called, I was halfway home
She was high, and I could tell
All the nights like these
Love feels like a disease
With little hope of getting well

Such a beautiful lady
But your love is like a rolling stone
Driving down the one-eighty
Knowing that I've gotta let you go

(She) She is the reason I live, but a part of me is gonna die
I'm letting go of me trying to tame, a blue brush-footed butterfly

In this quiet game
Like a moth to a flame
You burn, but never learn a thing
Here I go again
I can't picture the end
Addicted to the pain I'm in

Such a beautiful movie
But the ending's gonna break your heart
Just waiting for someone to move me
But no one could ever play her part

(She) She is the reason I live, but a part of me is gonna die
I'm letting go of me trying to tame, a blue brush-footed butterfly

So fly
Just fly
Fly
Just fly
