John T. Wurzer - Madam Butterfly

Madam Butterfly Giving Me the Blues

On a highway in a skyway
I just fly away 'till I cry, Hey, where you been
You say, "Honey, are you going my way?
And if you are will you pick me up and take me there again
You're fluttering you eyelids
Like madam butterfly exhausted and confused
This is my first time down this highway
And the sight of you is giving me the blues

I wouldn't take you if I could
Ain't nothing better than what I've already got
It's all been written there in blood
And they're only gonna give me this one shot...
Yeah, this one shot is all I got

You say you're standing on your last leg
Quite unbalanced, disillusioned and alone
You say, Honey are you going my way?
And if you are will you pick me up and take me home
You keep on fluttering your eyelids
Like madam butterfly exhausted and confused
This is my first time down this highway
And your perfume keeps on giving me the blues

You say you're running out of life force, but you're forced into a lifestyle full of treasure
Another lost and lonely love song on the roadside, without pride or pain or pleasure
And you're fluttering your eyelids like madam butterfly, exhausted and confused
This is my first time down this highway and your soft touch keeps on giving me the blues
