Lyrics: The Silly Song by Carrie Hope Fletcher

So there's this little darling who is blowing up youtube with her beauty and cute quirkiness. Carrie Hope Fletcher writes gorgeous songs and blows the best of us out of the water with her powerful voice.




A couple of months ago she put up this adorable little original, 'The Silly Song'. It strikes a beautiful balance between a lullaby and a love song, and is probably one of my favorite songs at the moment.


Several weeks ago she finished the song and performed it at Summer in the City. The final version of 'The Silly Song' begins at 3:44.



I posted the lyrics on tumblr a couple of weeks ago as I couldn't find them anywhere on the internet, and thought I will also add them on here, if you are searching :)

Enjoy, and have a fantastic day!

The birds and the bees

Singing in trees

Making me feel like I’m a butterfly

Flying so very high

Holding my breath as I’m looking down at the world

And the ocean blue

Waves at you

Hoping you’re holding a lover’s hand

Writing your names in sand

Building a castle where you can live with your girl

Because I can see

That I may be

Falling so swiftly for you

So if I’m a butterfly, will you be a butterfly too?

And I can’t believe

Among the trees

There’s a place that’s invisible, maybe even liveable

Would it be forgivable if I said we should go?

This candyfloss rain tastes like champagne

And I’ve heard the sunsets are beautiful, oh so very colourful

And when the moon is full, there is a fireworks show

And now I can see that I may be

Falling so swiftly for you

So if I’m a butterfly will you be a butterfly too?

And suddenly it’s very clear

I’m madly deeply so in love with you.

  1. Thank you very much for that, i've been looking for it for ages! But isn't it "The ocean blue has waved at you"? And "There's a hiding place that's invisible" and "I'm madly truly deeply so in love with you"?
