BUTTERFLIES lyrics

You just want money
Money, money, money, money, money, money
Money, get out of here, bro
Money, that's all you want, you don't care about human beings
All you want is money
When the money comes and the money goes
Only thing that's left, uh, it's a lovely holder
It's a pain in pleasure, never black and white (never black and white)
'Cause the sun keeps shining, uh, gonna close my eyes
Butterflies, go away (oh, no, no, no, oh, yeah, yeah) ( oh, no, no, no, oh, yeah, yeah))
These butterflies, seem to go away (go away)
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, I'm slippin' away (ooh, uh) ( ooh, uh))
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, I'm slippin' away (moving then, I'm slippin' away)
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, I'm slippin' away (girl, now I'm slippin' away)
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, and moving
And this wounded heart'll kill ya love, live without you (live without you)
In this perfect harmony, and that's what we are (don't go so far along)
Butterflies, go away, away (oh, no, no, no, butterflies) ( oh, no, no, no, butterflies))
These butterflies, seem to go away
(Oh, no, no, no, butterflies) always seem to go away ((Oh, no, no, no, butterflies)
I'm just moving, and moving (moving), and moving (moving), and moving, I'm slippin' away (you know I'm slippin', ooh)
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, I'm slippin' away (moving then, I'm slippin' away)
(I'm 'bout to slip away, I'm 'bout to slip, ooh)
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, I'm slippin' away (I'm 'bout to slip away, I'm 'bout to slip away, I'm 'bout to slip, ooh)
I'm just moving, and moving, and moving, and moving, I'm slippin' away (I'm 'bout to slip away, I'm 'bout to slip away, I'm 'bout to slip away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away, slippin' away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away, slippin' away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away)
Butterflies (I'm 'bout to slip away)
