Caterpillar

The caterpillar she crawls around and around Wondering when he'll come home to lay his head down She cooked and cleaned and is awaiting for he But there with his caterpillar, he'd rather not be She's tired of the neglect and wants to get away There's nothing more to talk about, nothing more to say The caterpillar is hoping to find happiness one day With one who will love her, with one who won't stray Are men that stupid or they really don't know When they have a good caterpillar, they tend to let it go Now that she has left, he can no longer hide The true love he feels for his caterpillar inside He didn't appreciate what it was and all that he had But it's too late, too bad and now he is sad It's over now and they are no longer She hid away from the world until she could become stronger Yes, time has passed and the season has changed And look what has developed, a beautiful butterfly with wings So you admire the butterfly and how it has grown With the wind blowing softly, the butterfly is gone For the happiness and love was found within Off across the sky flying so free The butterfly is happy.. the butterfly is me!
