calm that wicked wind, to pick you up and carry you off eastward, though i did release you for to seek a warmer sky
should you be blown back know that i will always run to greet you, still surprised to catch you every time
armed with this small butterfly net i will face the world alone & never be lonely
so calm that wicked wind, & if you go, you could be gone forever i will play awhile here by & by & by & by -
armed with this small butterfly net i will face the world alone & never be lonely
up & up you go for to steal the secrets of the heavens will you share them with me my bright & brilliant spy?
should you be blown back know that i will always run to greet you still surprised to catch you every time still surprised to catch you by & by & by & by -
