[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
