Poor Butterfly - Frank Sinatra & Duke Ellington

Poor Butterfly Lyrics

Poor Butterfly, 'neath the blossoms waiting
Poor Butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours
The hours pass into yearsAnd 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 back by and byBut if he don't come back, 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 yearsAnd 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 back by and byBut if he don't come back, I just must die
Poor ButterflyPoor 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 back by and byBut if he don't come back, I just must die
Poor Butterfly
