Buck was born on a beautiful morningAnd I felt very proudLets just say its not every dayThat you see me cry out loudHair like sunshine, a smile as warmAnd the prettiest eyes you'll findOne day last spring my lady and IFound out those eyes were blind[Chorus]Have a butterfly for me daddyThey sound so pretty to meTell me about the butterflyAnd all the things you seeWell over there Buck lies a beautiful meadowWith the colors of gold and tanWith the smell of hay and the sound of cricketsHere Buck, take my handAnd I wish you could see that big oak treeWith its limbs reaching up to the skyAnd a bed of flowers growing at its feetAnd a big yellow butterflySongtexteSave a butterfly for me daddyBefore they disappearSave a butterfly for me daddyAnd on his cheek was a tiny tearSo we packed up our bags our hopes and our dreamsAnd we all went to town that dayI sneaked off to the hospital chapelI got down on my knees and I prayedSave a butterfly for my boy lordI sure need nothing for meExcept an angel of joy to touch himThe way that he's touched meNow there are things in this universeThat we just don't understandAnd through an open window came a butterflyTo land on Buck's small handThe doctor's face was strangely whiteAs if it just couldn't beBut the light was in my boys faceDaddy he said, I can seeSave a butterfly for us BuckyWe're all so blind it seemsFor we've not seen the magicIn the power of a little boy's dreams Aus Songtexte Mania
