Tossin' hair a-ravin' Eyes of flashin' blue All the livin' that you're savin' Won't buy you dreams for you Cut yourself a columbine Tear it from the stem Now breathe upon the petals fine And throw them to the wind Watch the petals dancin' See them twirl and sing All your pride and prancin' How much does it mean? Watch the petals start to fly And then come falling down Hear the wind begin to cry As she sees some touch the ground Ah, lady, like the flower fair Some day you'll have to fall And you can find me standin' there To catch you if you crawl Tossin' hair a-ravin' Eyes of flashin' blue All the livin' that you're savin' Won't buy you dreams for you
