Just Like A Butterfly That's Caught In The Rain Lyrics - Grad Rag Doll - Diana Krall

Here I am, lonely, 

Tired and lonely, 

Crying for home in vain, 

Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain! 

Longing for flowers, 

Dreaming of hours 

Back in the sun-kissed lane, 

Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain! 

I know that all of the world is cheery 

By that old cottage door, 

Why are my wings so weary? 

I can't fly any more! 

Here I am praying, 

Brokenly saying, 

"Give me the sun again!", 

Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain! 

When it's raining from the sky, 

And I see a butterfly, 

I can almost hear him sighing 

'Cause he has to stop his flying. 

I can easily sympathise 

With those helpless butterflies! 

Here I am, lonely, 

Tired and lonely, 

Crying for home in vain, 

Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain! 

Longing for flowers, 

Dreaming of hours 

Back in the sun-kissed lane, 

Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain! 

I know that all of the world is cheery 

By that old cottage door, 

Why are my wings so weary? 

I can't fly any more! 

Here I am praying, 

Brokenly saying, 

"Give me the sun again!", 

Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
