About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse] I used to know this old scarecrow He was my song My joy and sorrow Cast alone between the furrows Of a field no longer sown by anyone I held a dandelion That said the time had come To leave upon the wind Not to return When summer burned the earth again Oh... Oh... [Chorus] Cultivate the freshest flower This garden ever grew Beneath these branches I once wrote such childish words for you But that's okay There's treasure children always seek to find And just like us You must have had A once upon a time [Outro] Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh) Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
