Black Butterfly Lyrics - Singles - Ellington Duke

You're a BLACK BUTTERFLY 

With your wings frayed and torn, 

Laughter's your's so is scorn 

As they point to you in shame. 

You're a BLACK BUTTERFLY 

With your wings near fire, 

But confess when your tire, 

Is the candle worth the flame? 

Your Queen of the Night 

But with morning's early light 

There's not a hear to really call your own; 

So before it's too late, 

Change your ways and repent, 

Take my love that was meant 

For BLACK BUTTERFLY along. 

You're a BLACK BUTTERFLY 

With your wings frayed and torn, 

Laughter's your's so is scorn 

As they point to you in shame. 

You're a BLACK BUTTERFLY 

With your wings near fire, 

But confess when your tire, 

Is the candle worth the flame? 

Your Queen of the Night 

But with morning's early light 

There's not a hear to really call your own; 

So before it's too late, 

Change your ways and repent, 

Take my love that was meant 

For BLACK BUTTERFLY along.
