I don't not want to let you go
I let you go i let you go
I guess there wasn't any other way
I thought you were my copilot
How will i ever run this ship
Without you by my side to navigate?
[whistle pre]
CHORUS:
Thought you were my copilot na na na
My copilot na na na na na
Now i know that you were just taking me for a ride
And that's alright it was a beautiful ride
My loneliness is on your dime
Painted lady of my life
Drifting through the Appalachian plains
Admit it you're a butterfly
You always knew you'd leave my side
You were just waiting for your wings to change
[chorus]
BRIDGE:
A memory of sunlight in a Massachusetts square
As i watch the idea of our child vanish in the air
Guess i was pretty clueless as you covered me with sand
Was this always your plan?
[chorus]
Just admit it you're a butterfly
Yeah just admit you're a butterfly
You were just waiting for your wings to dry
Yeah you were just waiting for your wings to dry
