You complicate my every thought
Your words are chosen, not just spoken
They comfort me in the strangest ways
You're hard to catch in any light
The sun reflects you back to night
And I can't even hold you for one day

So flutter in, turn me on
I'll chase you 'til my heart is gone
Black butterfly

A shadow here, a picture there
All at once you're everywhere
You touch and go then hover in the air
I love you 'cause you're dangerous
The blood that gives my head a rush
Is pumping much too fast but I don't care

So flutter in, turn me on
I'll chase you 'til my heart is gone
Black butterfly

Black butterfly
Black butterfly
Oh wake me, take me, black butterfly
Oh bleed me, need me, black butterfly
