Lyrics

Come that wicked wind
To pick you up
And carry you off eastward
Though I did release you
For to seek a warmer sky
Should you be blown back
Know that I will always run to greet you
Still surprised to catch you
Every time
Armed with this small butterfly net
I will face the world alone
And never be lonely
So come that wicked wind
And if you go, you could be gone forever
I will wait a while here
By and by and by and by
Armed with this small butterfly net
I will face the world alone
And never be lonely
Up and up you go
For to steal the secrets of the heavens
Will you share them with me
My bright and brilliant spy?
Should you be blown back
Know that I will always run to greet you
Still surprised to catch you
Every time
Still surprised to catch you
By and by and by and by
