Lyrics

Strawflower Me

Look at me

Won't you tell me what you see

Behind the tinsel flower lady

That you made me feel I must be

Don't you know

Even tinsel flowers grow uneasy

Shining all the time

Sometimes they find they can't even glow

Could you love a blue straw-flower

With no mystic magic power

Would you miss the glitter of your fantasy?

You know she isn't really me, baby

Just to please you

Maybe I can be a silver rose

But don't you know it's only straw-flower me?

Could you love a blue straw-flower

With no mystic magic powеr

Would you miss the glitter of your fantasy?

You know she isn't rеally me, baby, baby, baby
