  • And I love to tie you up
    And you love to let me down
    We both try to cover it up
    With a sound
    You ain't my buttercup
    I ain't your little fool
    I know that ain't a part of the deal
    We're through
    It's just a matter of time

    It's just a matter of time
    And I'd love to share the cost

    Butterfly
    The reason why we need to fly, high away
    It's just a matter of time

    It's just a matter of time
    Before we're thrown back in the wheel!
    Before we're thrown back in the wheel!
    Baby, I'll be hard pressed

    Maybe we're more simple too
    Ain't a region of water!
    Before we're thrown back in the wheel! Writer/s: MICHAEL DAVID D'ABO, TONY MACAULAY
