Butterflies danced
on invisible strings
Showing wings they borrowed
from a rainbow
And a blackbird on high
sang a praise to the sky
While a light aeroplane
sprayed the fields
With a silvery rain
Furry backed bees
with a tireless drone
Never moan
they're happy to be working
And a grasshopper green
could be heard but not seen
While a light aeroplane
sprayed the fields
With a silvery rain
Fly away Peter fly away Paul
Before there's nothing left to
fly at all
Take to the sky higher than high
Before the silvery rain
begins to fall
Nothing moves now
but the swaying ripe corn
Not a dawn is greeted
with a bird's song
There's a feather or two
from a bird that once flew
Before a light aeroplane
sprayed the fields
With a silvery rain
Fly away Peter fly away Paul
Before there's nothing left to
fly at all
Take to the sky higher than high
Before the silvery rain
begins to fall
Fly away Peter fly away Paul
Before there's nothing left to
fly at all
Take to the sky higher than high
Before the silvery rain
begins to fall
