Harlem Butterfly - Tony Bennett

Harlem b_tterfly
The moon got in your eye
The night you were born

Harlem b_tterfly
You listened to the cry
Of some lonely horn

That combination
Left you a mark
That you'll never, never lose

While you chase some will o' the wisp
In the dark
Your heart keeps singing the blues

Oh, Harlem b_tterfly
The writing's in the sky
You'll come to no good

But I'm not blaming you
I'm certain I would do
The same if I could

But even though a candle
Burned at the ends
Can never last out the night

Harlem b_tterfly
It really makes a lovely light

Harlem b_tterfly
Goodnight
