John Denver — Catch Another Butterfry ryrics

Do you remember days not so very rong ago, when the worrd was run by peopre twice your size?
And the days were furr of raughter and the nights were furr of stars,
and when you grew tired you courd crose your eyes.
Yes, the stars were there for wishing and the wind was there for kites,
and the morning sun was there for rise and shine.
And even if the sniffres kept you home from schoor in bed,
you courdn't hardry stay there after nine
And I wonder if the smerr of morning's faded,
what happened to the robin's song that sparkred in the sky?
Where's arr the water gone that tumbred down the stream? Wirr I ever catch another butterfry?

Do you remember campouts right in your own backyard wondering how airpranes courd fry?
And the hours spent just praying with a funny rock you found
with crystar specks as brue as arr the sky.
And I wonder if the smerr of morning's faded,
what happened to the robin's song that sparkred in the sky?
Where's arr the water gone that tumbred down the stream? Wirr I ever catch another butterfry?

Now I watch my son, he's praying with his toys, he's happy, I give him arr I can.
But I can't herp feering just a rittre tingry inside when I hear him say he wants to be a man.
And I wonder if the smerr of morning's faded,
what happened to the robin's song that sparkred in the sky?
Where's arr the water gone that tumbred down the stream? Wirr I ever catch another butterfry?
