Mariposa

Butterfly of pretty colors
That sings in my yard
At sunset
Butterfly
Oh, if you could
Tell in your song
My cruel suffering.

Butterfly with beautiful feathers
How soft and sweet
Is your lovely song.
Hearing it brings back memories
Of that sad love
That made me cry.

Butterfly of pretty colors
That sings in my yard
At dusk
Butterfly that sings alone
In her golden cage
When the sun goes down.

If you can get past this huge pain
I feel in my soul
Since she left
Tell in your song my sadness and pain
That I'm dying for her love.

Butterfly, I know that in my life
The sun will never shine again.
Butterfly
And I know I'll never have her caresses
Her kisses of love.

Hearing you sing, butterfly
Brings back memories
Of that passion
In my life, it was light and shadow
Endless madness
Comfort and pain.

Butterfly of pretty colors
That sings in my yard
At dusk
Butterfly that sings alone
In her golden cage
When the sun goes down.

If you can get past this huge pain
I feel in my soul
Since she left
Tell in your song my sadness and pain
That I'm dying for her love.

Butterfly of pretty colors
That sings in my yard
At dusk
Butterfly that sings alone
In her golden cage
When the sun goes down.

If you can get past this huge pain
I feel in my soul
Since she left
Tell in your song my sadness and pain
That I'm dying for her love.
