Lyrics 🤍: [Intro] Three white butterflies to know you're near [Verse] I know they think that it took somebody else To make me beautiful, beautiful As they intended me to be But they're wrong I know they think that it took thousands of people To put me together again like an experiment Some big men behind the scenes Sewing Frankenstein black dreams into my songs But they're wrong [Chorus] God, if you'rе near me, send mе three white butterflies Or an owl to know know you're listening, sitting while I'm drinking Grandfather, please stand on the shoulders of my father While he's deep-sea fishing for sharks in the Pacific [Bridge] 'Cause I'm good in spirit, warm-bodied A fallible deity wrapped up in white (Oh-oh) I'm folk, I'm jazz, I'm blue, I'm green Regrettably, also a white woman (Oh-oh) But I have good intentions even if I'm one of the last ones If you don't believe me, my poetry, or my melodies Feel it in your bones I have good intentions, even if I'm one of the last ones (Ah-ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah-ah, yeah, mm) [Chorus] Grandfather, please stand on the shoulders of my father While he's deep-sea fishing for all the things he's wishing God, if you're near me, send me three white butterflies Or a map to know your vision, impart on me Your wisdom [Post-Chorus] It took somebody else to make me beautiful, wonderful As they intended me to be But they're wrong [Outro] Three white butterflies to know you're near
Three white butterflies to know you're near I know they think That it took somebody else To make me beautiful Beautiful As they intended me to be But they're wrong I know they think That it took thousands of years To put me together again Like an experiment Some big man behind the scenes Sewing Frankenstein black dreams into my songs But they're wrong God, if you're near me, send me three white butterflies Or an owl to know you're listening Sitting while I'm drinking Grandfather, please, stand on the shoulders of my father While he's deep-sea fishing for sharks in the Pacific 'Cause I'm good in spirit, warm body A fallible deity wrapped up in white I'm folk, I'm jazz, I'm blue, I'm green Regrettably, also a white woman But I have good intentions, even if I'm one of the last ones If you don't believe me, look at my poetry or my melodies Feel it in your bones I have good intentions, even if I'm one of the last ones Ah-ha-ah, yeah, ah-ha-ah, yeah, ah-ha-ah, yeah Grandfather, please, stand on the shoulders of my father While he's deep-sea fishing for all the things he's wishing God, if you're near me, send me three white butterflies Or a map to know you're fishing, impart on me your wisdom It took somebody else to make me beautiful Wonderful As they intended me to be But they're wrong Three white butterflies to know you're near
Q isso meu Deus, essa mulher me surpreende a cada música que é lançada em sua vida. Suas músicas me fazem um bem enorme que vc nao sabe o qto é a sua existência em minha vida com lindas músicas. Vc teria que fzr um show e se programar em sua próxima turnê e colocar o RJ como alvo principal de seus shows pelo grandioso Brasil que te reverencia. Que voz essa mulher tem senhor!!!
This album sounds so classic, so cinematic and French. Like watching a great new wave black and white movie from 60s. Such a strange feeling of pictures going by. . .this is her masterpiece.
I listened to this song literally 2 minutes ago, and when i went outside to let my dog in, three white butterflies were flying around me. i see you god!
Es increíble leer los comentarios y darse cuenta cuanta gente ama a Lana, y que trasmite tanta paz, que la amamos desde el principio hasta el final, que a muchos los salvo, parece que su propósito es salvar y dar paz 💖
The fact that she can title this as three white butterflies but she chose it to be grandfather please stand on the shoulder of my father while he's deep sea fishing is absolutely slay
Lana's music is so timeless and...evocatives, It makes me feel like I'm living in another area,but at the same time, her themes are so relevant to my current life.
This seems to be the track on the new album people are buzzing the least about-- and it's my favorite track! I guess I'm just not like the rest. I can't stop replaying this song!
This reminds me of my grandfather who always took me to fish on Sundays. He always took me on Sunday but one Sunday he cared me and said he won't be able to do it this Sunday and from that day on I never went fishing with him again. Rip pops❤
Three white butterflies to know you're near I know they think That it took somebody else To make me beautiful Beautiful As they intended me to be But they're wrong I know they think That it took thousands of years To put me together again Like an experiment Some big man behind the scenes Sewing Frankenstein black dreams into my songs But they're wrong God, if you're near me, send me three white butterflies Or an owl to know you're listening Sitting while I'm drinking Grandfather, please, stand on the shoulders of my father While he's deep-sea fishing for sharks in the Pacific 'Cause I'm good in spirit, warm body A fallible deity wrapped up in white I'm folk, I'm jazz, I'm blue, I'm green Regrettably, also a white woman But I have good intentions, even if I'm one of the last ones If you don't believe me, look at my poetry or my melodies Feel it in your bones I have good intentions, even if I'm one of the last ones Ah-ha-ah, yeah, ah-ha-ah, yeah, ah-ha-ah, yeah Grandfather, please, stand on the shoulders of my father While he's deep-sea fishing for all the things he's wishing God, if you're near me, send me three white butterflies Or a map to know you're fishing, impart on me your wisdom It took somebody else to make me beautiful Wonderful As they intended me to be But they're wrong Three white butterflies to know you're near
Lana es de esos cantantes que bajaron del cielo a cantar entre los humanos. Estoy conmocionado con este álbum me transporta a un lugar que no sabía existía.
oh my god just that opening gave me chills. nobody does it like you do lana, you have changed my life with every album and song you release. this is yet another beautiful song from the soul.
I never thought about what it might be like for so many people to assume and speculate that your identity is fraudulent. I never considered she might care or feel some way about it, but it’s a part of her story, that assumption. Everyone always says she’s an industry plant but you cannot fake this amount of talent, authenticity and acclaim.
this song is so beautiful. im glad that there is still someone in the world who creates such beautiful, unique, poetic and artistic music. i love you lana💘💘💘💘
Como ainda não estou vendo nenhum brasileiro comentando? Mas enfim, Lanita entregando tudo como sempre! Essa nova fase dela está sendo uma das melhores pra mim. Ela definitivamente é e sempre vai ser a melhor cantora que eu já escutei em toda minha vida, a sua voz angelical me faz delirar. Obrigada Lana
Eu tô ouvindo no repeat e acho que essa é uma das minhas favoritas, não só do álbum, mas da carreira. Sobre os comentários, é que eu realmente não consigo tecer simples comentários, pois vêm muitos detalhes que gostei e acabaria me perdendo em pensamentos.
0:05 Está canción, tiene un poder, una fuerza melódica que me deja como paralizado. Se me erizó la piel todo el tiempo. Y ese quiebre en tu voz, wow!!! indescriptible, bello, bello. Que gran canción Lana Del Rey!! CTM!!
Yo literally lloré a mares, le di gracias a Dios por permitirme tener a ella como embajadora de su gracia, me permití sentir tantas emociones que no pude aguantarme 😭 😢❤❤
I love this track so much - the melody is just absolutely amazing and gives me a sensation. Lana sings it so well and it’s so well written. It reminds me greatly of my family and grandfather who I lost when I was very little. Love this track ❣️
wow... a song about intellectual honesty; this lyrics are gentle and powerful at once. I love how lana discusses faith, trust, truth and affection in a way that is so philosophical and poetic. Lana, you are a moral guide with an angel's voice. Please take care of your soul, as you inspire me to do with mine. I sincerely love you.
Lana te amo, eres lo más dulce e inspirador que conozco. Gracias por tu amor al arte que nos regalas, tan íntimo tan cálido para el alma, tan dulce, tan motivador, tan real, tan maduro y emotivo, tan sincero, simplemente piezas que permanecerán para siempre en mi alma, este álbum ha salvado mi vida,una vez más lo haces lana y siempre te agradeceré, me haces querer quedarme siempre para inundarme de tu dulzura una vez más y apreciar la vida porque solo en esta vida estás tú para oírte cantar y verte crecer y crear y amar y ser una mujer excepcional, gracias por tanto. Te ame desde la primera vez y te amare hasta el final, te amo para siempre.
Lana del Rey, gracias por darnos uno de los mejores álbumes de este 2023, yo admiro tu música desde 2017 y tu música es *ARTE PURO, qué obra maestra acabas de sacar ❤❤❤❤*
What an album, Lana never disappoints ❤❤❤ Now, hear me out, this song in specific gives me illuminati, reptilian vibes request, the sea and fishing taking into account the mason symbols XD I repeat, wonderful song, perfect album, immaculate art from Lana as always ❤❤❤
