Del Rey, Lana - Happiness Is A Butterfly Lyrics






Do you want me or do you not?
I heard one thing, now I'm hearing another
Dropped a pin to my parking spot
The bar was hot, it's 2AM, it feels like summer

Happiness is a butterfly
Try to catch it like every night
It escapes from my hands into moonlight
Every day is a lullaby
Hum it on the phone like every night
Sing it for my babies on the tour life
Ah-ah

If he's a serial killer, then what's the worst
That can happen to a girl who's already hurt?
I'm already hurt
If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed
Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt
He's already hurt

I said, "Don't be a jerk, don't call me a taxi"
Sitting in your sweatshirt, crying in the backseat
Ooh, oh-oh
I just wanna dance with you
Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley
I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue, oh-oh
I just wanna dance with you
I just wanna dance

My baby, I just wanna dance (Dance)
With you (Dance)
Baby, I just wanna dance (Dance)
With you

Left the canyon, drove to the club
I was one thing, now I'm being another
Rolled down to Sunset in the truck
I'll pick you up if you're in town on the corner
Ah-ah

Happiness is a butterfly
We should catch it while dancing, I
Lose myself in the music, baby
Everyday is a lullaby
Try to catch it like lightening, I
Sing it into my music, I'm crazy

If he's a serial killer, then what's the worst
That can happen to a girl who's already hurt?
I'm already hurt
If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed
Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt
He's already hurt

I said, "Don't be a jerk, don't call me a taxi"
Sitting in your sweatshirt, crying in the backseat
Ooh, oh-oh
I just wanna dance with you
Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley
I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue, oh-oh
I just wanna dance with you
I just wanna dance
With you
Baby, I just wanna dance (Dance)
With you (Dance)
Baby, I just wanna dance (Dance)
With you

    Do you want me or do you not?
    I heard one thing, now I'm hearing another
    Dropped a pin to my parking spot
    The bar was hot, it's 2 AM, it feels like summer

    Happiness is a butterfly
    Try to catch it, like, every night
    It escapes from my hands into moonlight
    Every day is a lullaby
    Hum it on the phone, like, every night
    Sing it for my babies on the tour life, ah

    I'm already hurt
    If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed
    Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt
    He's already hurt

    I said: Don't be a jerk, don't call me a taxi
    Sitting in your sweatshirt, crying in the backseat, ooh
    I just wanna dance with you
    Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley
    I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue
    I just wanna dance with you
    I just wanna dance with you

    Baby, I just wanna dance (dance)
    With you (dance)
    Baby, I just wanna dance (dance)
    With you

    Left the canyon, drove to the club
    I was one thing, now I'm being another
    Laurel down to Sunset in the truck
    I'll pick you up if you're in town on the corner, ah

    Happiness is a butterfly
    We should catch it while dancing
    I lose myself in the music, baby
    Every day is a lullaby
    Try to catch it like lightning
    I sing it into my music, I'm crazy

    I'm already hurt

    He's already hurt

    I said: Don't be a jerk, don't call me a taxi
    Sitting in your sweatshirt, crying in the backseat, ooh
    I just wanna dance with you
    Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley
    I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue
    I just wanna dance with you

  49. L.... D....

    This song sounds like an ode to the end of summer or the end of a fairytale love story

  50. b.... ....

    literally no one:

    just me: ISAIDDONTBEAJERKDONTCALLMEATAXISITTININYOURSWEATSHIRTCRYININTHEBACKSEATOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOO

    b.... ....

    Mee literally

  51. c.... ....

    Btw: Apparently that's Jack Nicholson's Grandson on the cover with her. Go figure, cute.

  52. c.... ....

    After a bunch of edibles the other night I listened to NFR end to end. I was riveted, spellbound. I was so high I kept rewinding the songs it had my emotions reeling. By the time I got to Happiness is... I became convinced Lana's a reluctant star. She knows the truth small snips of joy is all we ever really have in this world (like a butterfly). She knows her star will fall and youth and beauty fade in this short (but beautiful) life. I put this record in the same pantheon as 'Blue' (Joni). I think maybe will always be her most important record. Nice work, Bravo.

  53. S.... L....

    Love you baby lana💘

  54. n.... ....

    lana del rey, jack antonoff, rick

  55. R.... S....

    How do I know if my crush wants me or not?

  56. L.... 2....

    I only like this part 0:57 - 1:24 it reminds of another song does anyone know it?

    L.... 2....

    omg same ! Cant remember that song tho

  57. J.... ....

    And i feel all the things i have been numb too with her voice and her music

  58. G.... G....

    I’m listening to this as a dare

    “Happiness is like a butterfly, the more you chase it the more it will elude you. But if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder” - Henry David Thoreau 🦋

  61. D.... M....

    Ok so tell me everyone who has heard the full album. Is Lana Del Ray Back? I have been waiting for her to move me how her first album did. She is one of my favorite artists, I still love lust for life single.

    I listened to this song when my crush rejected me and left me crying. Now when ever I hear this I just burst into tears. Hopefully it gets better.

  74. s.... g....

    about for years ago, i moved to a city that i knew nothing about. I was so out from the world and all i was doing is going outside when its night time and listen your songs while staring at the stars. I have very happy and very sad memories hiding in your songs, Lana. I wouldn't have felt better if i didn't listen you. You have a very special place in my heart. I love you..
