[Verse 1]
Remember when we used to share
The bachelor at your soft St. Claire
Freshly out your mother's house
Never thought we'd make it out, of there
We'd make it out of there

Laying on that futon bed
Dwelling on the words you said
As long as we're [?]
Would rather be right here witchu, instead
Right here witchu instead

[Chorus]
Oh, my my, saw five butterflies out the window
Bathin' in light
Like it's their first time alive
Them five butterflies were dancin' like windchimes
By our window
That light was pourin' in sun
And that's when I realized
Oh girl it won't be long
Oh no it won't be long
No it won't be long
Oh girl it won't be long

[Verse 2]
Street car was our choice chaufeur
All on one time base transfer
Up and down the avenue
In the aisle right next to you
I spoke
Right next to you I spoke

We know how to play by ear
So give it just a couple years
These tracks might meet us 'round and 'round
Soon enough they'll take us out, of here
And we'll make it out of here

[Chorus]
Oh, my my, I saw five butterflies
Out the window
Bathin' in light
Like it's their first time alive
Them five butterflies were dancin' like windchimes
By our window
That light was pourin' in sun
And that's when I realized
Oh girl it won't be long

[Verse 3]
If we, we start a family
They'll see, how far we've come
Then we, we can say finally
I know, it won't be long

[Chorus]
Oh my my, I saw five butterflies
Out the window
Bathin' in light
Like it's their first time alive
Them five butterflies were dancin' like windchimes
By our window
That light was pourin' in sun
And that's when I realized
Oh girl it won't be long
No, it won't be long
No, it won't be long
Oh no it won't be long
Oh girl it won't be long
