Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tossin' hair raven Eyes of flashin' blue All the livin' that you're savin' Won't buy your dreams for you [Verse 2] Cut yourself a columbine Tear it from the stem Now breathe upon the petals fine And throw 'em to the wind [Verse 3] Watch the petals dancing See 'em twirl and sing Now all your pride and prancing How much does it mean? [Verse 4] Watch the petals start to fly And then come falling down Ah hear the wind begin to cry As she sees 'em touch the ground [Verse 5] 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 call [Verse 1] Tossin' hair raven Eyes of flashin' blue All the livin' that you're savin' Won't buy your dreams for you
