[Intro: Roy Ayers, Erykah Badu]
Hey, Erykah, I'd like to take you searching
And growing, too?
I'd love to
Okay, well let me just pack a little bag right quick
I'ma bring along some water (How about lemon?)
Some maple syrup Grade B
Ooh, I like that (Haha, what)
[Verse 1: Roy Ayers, Erykah Badu, Both]
Say butterfly up in the sky
I got a story to say and I'll tell you why
I'm searching (Say butter)
You see my friend, I need someone
Who feels and needs the same as I
I'm searching (I'm searching for a friend)
What's right is right, what's wrong is wrong
Sing my song all day long
I'm searching, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah), ooh-hoo (Come on)
[Chorus: Roy Ayers, Erykah Badu]
Searching, searching, searching
Searching, searching, searching
Searching, searching, searching
Searching, searching, searching
Searching
[Verse 2: Roy Ayers, Erykah Badu]
Now, what went down, I don't believe
I just know, I can't conceive
I'm searching (Say butter, butter)
When is love is gone and one believes
That love will come like brand new leaves
They'll still be searching, yeah (Searching)
Say butterfly up in the sky
Got a story to say, I'll tell you why
I'm searching, yeah yeah (La, la, la, la, la)
And in the day that I will say (Say butter)
My soul lives a truthful way (Say)
I'm searching, ooh (Butter, butter, ooh, so)
[Chorus: Erykah Badu, Roy Ayers, Both]
Searching, searching (Yeah), searching (Searching)
Searching, searching, searching (I'm searching, yeah)
Searching (Yeah), searching (I'm searching), searching
Searching, searching, searching (Searching)
Searching (Yeah), searching (Yeah, yeah, yeah), searching
Searching (I'm searching), searching (Searching), searching (Searching)
Searching (Searching), searching (Searching), searching (Yeah)
Searching (Yeah), searching (Yeah), searching (Yeah, I'm searching)
Searching (Searching), searching (Yeah), searching (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Outro: Erykah Badu, Roy Ayers, Both]
Oh, I'm searching, searching, searching (I'm searching)
Searching, searching
Searching, searching, searching, come on, ah
Searching, searching, searching, come on, what
Searching, searching, searching, come on
Searching, searching, yeah
Come on home, said (Come on, search with me)
Ooh, said (Searching with me, the family)
Send him home, yeah (Searching)
Ooh, yeah, hey (Searching, searching, yeah)
Doo, ooh, doo, doo (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah
I'm searching
