Plastic Flowers (Solo)

歌詞

In the summertime We met to see a threat That came to harm Something we both loved And as the hours passed We talked until at last It came the time to part I was doin' well And I thought she liked my style I had no business thinking like that But it lasted quite a while I got my promises made But before the timeless father I showed plastic flowers To Mother Nature's daughter She held a vase Ker misty gaze brought them to life I was amazed She turned to me With a tear in her eye We went to give our thanks Along the river banks And watch the water flow As it rolled along She scooped some river sand And held it in her hand And sang a little song We saw the water lines Left there from ancient times I watched the sand fallin' through her fingers On the shore so dry I was doin' well And I thought she liked my style I had no business feelin' like that But it lasted quite a while I got my promises made But before the timeless father I showed plastic flowers To Mother Nature's daughter
