Harlem Butterfly (2011 Remaster)
Harlem butterfly
The moon got in your eye
The night you were born
Harlem butterfly
You listened to the cry
Of some lonely horn
That combination
Left you a mark
That you’ll never, never lose
While you chase some will o’ the wisp
In the dark
Your heart keeps singing the blues
Oh, Harlem butterfly
The writing’s in the sky
You’ll come to no good
But I’m not blaming you
I’m certain I would do
The same if I could
But even though a candle
Burned at the ends
Can never last out the night
Harlem butterfly
It really makes a lovely light
Harlem butterfly
Goodnight
