[Verse 1]
You tucked me in, turned out the light
Kept me safe and sound at night
Little girls depend on things like that
Brushed my teeth and combed my hair
Had to drive me everywhere
You were always there when I looked back
You had to do it all alone
Make a living, make a home
Must have been as hard as it could be
And when I couldn't sleep at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold my hand and sing to me

[Chorus]
Caterpillar in the tree
How you wonder who you'll be
Can't go far, but you can always dream
Wish you may and wish you might
Don't you worry, hold on tight
I promise you there will comе a day
Butterfly fly away

[Verse 2]
Butterfly fly away
Got your wings, now you can't stay
Take thosе dreams and make them all come true
Butterfly fly away
You've been waiting for this day
All along you've known just what to do
[Outro]
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
Butterfly fly away
