We let it slide on by didn't realize
I remember when you took my breath away
Could've climaxed in a single afternoon
And a love song of surrender in blue
Chanson papillon, Chanson
Chanson papillon, Chanson
Chanson papillon, when we were very young
Chanson papillon, when we were very young
Oh, I wanna say
Gone are the days of instant romance
That was a time of life when foxy was the dance
Like butterflies, like hot butterflies
And then you got wise to all my lies
Chanson papillon, Chanson
We had just begun to fly
Chanson papillon, we had just begun
Chanson papillon, when we were very young
Like butterflies, like hot butterflies
Let it slide on by didn't realize
Let it slide on by
Chanson papillon, we had just begun
And the nights of slow goodbyes
Like a bittersweet perfume
Chanson papillon, when we were very young
Chanson papillon, we had just begun
Chanson papillon, Chanson
Chanson papillon, we had just begun
Like butterflies, like hot butterflies
Chanson papillon
Chanson papillon
Like butterflies, like hot butterflies
Chanson papillon, Chanson
Can you tell me how a love that's so fine
All our memories are burning in time
