Butterfly Promises Or Promises of the Monarchs

Tomorrow's your birthday
And I couldn't think of anything to give and say,
'Til I saw two butterlies flying
And now I kow exactly what to give.
Today's the special day
And I would like to surprise you, if you may,
100 monarchs for you and a diamond ring,
Symbols of my love 'til the very end,
And with these gifts I would like you to know,
That even in death your name would be the last words I'll say.
