Verse 1
I had nothing to say on Christmas day
When you threw all your clothes in the snow
When you knocked over chairs and burnt you hair
I just tried to stay out of your way
When you fell asleep with blood on your teeth
I got in my car and drove away
Chorus
Listen to me butterfly
There's only so much wine
You can drink in one life
And it will never be enough
To save you from the bottom of your glass
Verse 2
Where the state highway starts I stopped my car
I got out and stared up at the stars
As meteors died and shot across the sky
I thought of your sad shining eyes
When the sun finally rose I went back for my clothes
But you were still passed out on the floor
Chorus
Listen to me butterfly
There's only so much wine
You can drink in one life
And it will never be enough
To save you from the bottom of your glass
