1
There's a story told of a little Japanese
2
Sitting demurely 'neath the cherry blossom trees
3
Miss Butterfly's her name
4
A sweet little innocent child was she
5
Till a fine young American from the sea
6
To her garden came
7
They met beneath the cherry blossoms every day
8
And he taught her how to love the American way
9
To love with a soul 'twas easy to learn
10
Then he sailed away with a promise to return
11
Poor Butterfly 'neath the blossoms waiting
12
Poor Butterfly, for she loved him so
13
The moments pass into hours
14
The hours pass into years
15
And as she smiles through her tears
16
She murmurs low
17
The moon and I
18
Know that he'll be faithful
19
I'm sure he'll come to me by and by
20
But if he won't come back
21
Then I'll never sigh or cry
22
I just must die
23
