There's a story told of a little Japanese<br /> Sitting demurely 'neath the cherry blossom trees<br /> Miss Butterfly's her name<br /> A sweet little innocent child was she<br /> Till a fine young American from the sea<br /> To her garden came<br /> They met beneath the cherry blossoms every day<br /> And he taught her how to love the American way<br /> To love with a soul 'twas easy to learn<br /> Then he sailed away with a promise to returnPoor Butterfly 'neath the blossoms waiting<br /> Poor Butterfly, for she loved him so<br /> The moments pass into hours<br /> The hours pass into years<br /> And as she smiles through her tears<br /> She murmurs low<br /> The moon and I<br /> Know that he'll be faithful<br /> I'm sure he'll come to me by and by<br /> But if he won't come back<br /> Then I'll never sigh or cry<br /> I just must die<br /> Poor Butterfly<br /> <br /> Songwriters<br /> JOHN GOLDEN, RAYMOND HUBBELLPublished by<br /> Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Universal Music Publishing Group, Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.Lyrics provided by TANCODEhttps://damnlyrics.com/" readonly=""/>
