Plastic Flowers -Neil Young In the summertime We met to see a threat That came to harm Something we both loved And as the hours past We talked until at last It came the time to part I was doing well And I though she liked my style I had no business thinking like that But it lasted quite a while I got my promises made But before the time was farther I show plastic flowers To mother nature's daughter She held a vase Her misty gaze brought them to life I was amazed She turned to me with a tear in her eye We went to give our thanks Along the river banks And watched the water flow As it rolled along She scoops some river sand And held it in her hand And sang a little song We saw the water lines Left there from ancient times I watch the sand falling through her fingers On the shore so dry I was doing well And I though she liked my style I had no business feeling like that But it lasted quite a while I got my promises made But before the time was farther I show plastic flowers To mother nature's daughter
