Butterflies danced on invisible stringsShowing wings they borrowed from a rainbowAnd a blackbird on high sang a praise to the skyWhile a light aeroplane sprayed the fields with a silvery rainFurry backed bees with a tireless droneNever moan, they're happy to be workingAnd a grasshopper green could be heard but not seenWhile a light aeroplane sprayed the fields with a silvery rain Chorus:Fly away, Peter, fly away, Paul, before there's nothing left to fly at allTake to the sky, higher than high, before the silvery rain begins to fallNothing moves now but the swaying ripe cornNot a dawn is greeted with a bird's songThere's a feather or two from a bird that once flewBefore a light aeroplane sprayed the fields with a silvery rainchorus(Instrumental break)chorus------------------------------------------------------------------------------
