“Happiness Is a Butterfly" (stylized in sentence case) appears to be about the fleeting nature of happiness and the desire to chase it. The song conveys a sense of confusion and uncertainty in relationships, as the singer questions whether the person she is with truly wants to be with her. The metaphor of a butterfly for happiness suggests that it is elusive and difficult to catch, particularly at night when it disappears into the moonlight.

The pre-chorus contemplates the potential risks and consequences of pursuing a relationship, even with someone who may have a dark past. The chorus repeats the desire for connection and intimacy, with the verses describing the search for happiness in a night out in Los Angeles. The post-chorus emphasizes the singer's longing for a simple connection through dance, which seems to be the closest she can get to capturing the butterfly of happiness. The song appears to be a reflection of the challenges of finding meaningful connections in a confusing world and the struggle to maintain happiness in the face of uncertainty and disappointment.
