Curtains lyricsSongwriters: John, Elton; Taupin, Bernie;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
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/e/elton-john-lyrics/curtains-lyrics.html }
Cultivate the freshest flower
This garden ever grew
Beneath these branches
I once wrote such a 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
