Sometimes Like Butterflies

[Verse 1]

Well, I told ya not to fall in love

I ain't the kind you can tie down

You went and did it anyway

As though I'd done ya harm

And each time I went reaching out

That's when you let go

Now don't try and pretend

That you didn't know

[Chorus]

If you wanna love me

If you wanna hold me

Come on, baby, set me free

I've got to be free

If you wanna love me

If you wanna hold me

Butterflies were made to fly

I've got to be free

Sometimes like butterflies

Oh yeah, yeah

Ooh, don't hold me, no, no

[Verse 2]

Well, I told you right from the beginning

I couldn't stay for love

I had to go

Now it's not because in my heart

Baby, I don't love you

It's just because I'm meant to be

I'm meant to be free

[Chorus]

If you wanna love me

If you wanna hold me

Come on, baby, set me free

I've got to be free

If you wanna love me

If you wanna hold me

Butterflies were made to fly

I've got to be free

Sometimes like butterflies

Oh, don't hold me

Don't hold me, no, no

[Bridge]

'Cause it's not because in my heart

Baby, I don't love you

It's only that I'm meant to be

I'm meant to be free

[Outro]

If you wanna love me

If you wanna hold me

Come on now and set me free

I've got to be free

If you wanna love me

If you wanna hold me

Come on now and set me free

I've got to be free

Sometimes like butterflies
