Lyrics:

A faded photograph I mailed to you

With feelings I dont want to face

And a long song of surrender in blue

I remember when you took my breath away



Chorus:



Chanson papillon, we were very young

Like butterflies, like hot butterfly

Chanson papillon, we had just begun

We let it slide on by

We didnt realize



All our memories are burning in time

Like a bittersweet perfume

Can you tell me how a love thats so fine

Could have climaxed in a single afternoon



Gone are the days of instant romance

And the nights of slow goodbyes

That was a time of life when foxy was the dance

But then you got wise to all my lies



Chorus



Chanson papillon, chanson

Chanson papillon, chanson

Chanson papillon, chanson

Chanson papillon, chanson
