A Butterfly Flaps its Wings

A butterfly flaps its wings
Some other place he sees what it brings
Two distant lands
Takes both her hands

Choose a place at the pane
Steals a look, says the same
Two distant lands
Two distant sands

Find a flower, harvest the seeds
Plant then forget to water it's needs
Two distant lands
Two distant hands

A butterfly flaps its wings
Some other place he sees what it brings
Two distant lands
Four uncoupled hands
