The Crow & The Butterfly - Live Acoustic from Kansas City

This is called The Crow & The Butterfly

I painted your room at midnight
So I'd know yesterday was over
I put all your books on the top shelf
Even the one with the four-leaf clover
Man, I'm getting older

I took all your pictures off the wall
And wrapped 'em in a newspaper blanket
And I haven't slept in what seems like a century
And now I can barely breathe

Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late

Your words still serenade me
And your lullabies won't let me sleep
And I've never heard such a haunting melody
Whoa, it's killing me
You know I can barely breathe

Just like a crow chasing a butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late

Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you would slip away

Like the crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late

Just a little too late

Yeah, but you see, it's never too late
