Lyrics

1) Caterpillar, going through a change now
Caterpillar going through a change you cannot see
Perplexingly you weave your womb
Encase you in your white cocoon
Butterfly, Butterfly soon will be waking
from your sleep to the great change that has taken place
Flying oe?r the water, see your reflection.

Chorus:
Caterpillar, goodbye now; spread those wings you can fly now
Caterpillar no more now; Butterfly is your name now
Goodbye, no more trudging overnight
That change has happened to your life
Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye

2) Wings of red and gold will take you far away
Far away to places that you?ve never seen before
Emerging from your white cocoon
Outshine the flowers as they bloom
Butterfly, Butterfly soon will be waking
from your sleep to the great change that has taken place
Flying oe?r the water, oe?r your sons and daughters
Nature?s beauty floats

Repeat Chorus 2x
