You tuck¹ me in, turn out the light 　　
kept me safe and sound at night 　　
Little girls depend on things like that 　　
Brushed my teeth and combed² 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　　
Caterpillar³ 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 tight⁴ 　　
I promise you there will come a day 　
Butterfly fly away 　　
Butterfly fly away (Butterfly fly away) 　　
Got your wings, now you can't stay 　　
Take those dreams and make them all come true　
Butterfly fly away (Butterfly fly away) 　　
You've been waiting for this day 　　
All along and know just what to do　　
Butterfly, Butterfly, Butterfly, Butterfly fly away　　Butterfly fly away 　　
Butterfly fly away


你给我把被子盖好，关上灯
让我夜里能安心地酣睡
小女孩们依赖这样的事儿
刷牙，梳理头发
开车带我去各个地方
当我回望时，你总在那儿
你总要一个人做这些事
赚钱，养家
无论多艰苦
当我夜里不能入睡时
害怕的东西袭来时
你会握住我的手，轻声哼唱
树里藏着的毛毛虫啊
你疑惑你的未来
无法高飞，但永远有梦
希望你可以
别担心，坚持到底
我向你承诺，会有那么一天 　
你化蝶飞远
蝴蝶也可以远飞（蝴蝶也可以远飞）
当你拥有翅膀，你就别停留原地
带上梦想，让它们成为现实 　
蝴蝶也可以远飞（蝴蝶也可以远飞）
你已经为这一天等了很久
你一直知道要怎么做
蝴蝶啊，蝴蝶啊，蝴蝶啊，蝴蝶也能远飞
蝴蝶也能远飞...
蝴蝶也能远飞...
