Songtext von Scarecrow

Hundred miles away Memories saved That covered bridge Where our names are still engraved You turn to go I turn to leave And you turn to gold And I turn to leaves In the cool shade Of a sycamore tree I Paint a perfect portrait Of how I used to be When I'm alone My mind is slow You can be the smiling face on a scarecrow But I know myself I can't be like that I can't help myself I will always cry Keep my frown in a jar on the shelf And put on my favorite smile So far away And my eyes stay, dry In my head Is all I want to think about When I stop and stare I've got to learn to live without It'll be easier in the end When I've already lost a lover I can't learn to lose a friend - Chorus - Under a stone in the back I've grown A flower for you dear A flower that's so beautiful May now be tellin' how I feel So I water It everyday And I rip out every weed How can you think I would let it wilt When it was built from just a seed
