Extravaganza
The blossom blooms through frosty nights
Its show now tinged with sun
Each time it fills my eyes with tears
My heart is all undone
I'm sure that it did not design
To be so brightly made
Its luminescence makes me know
Our love did start to fade
Bring petals and see them float
A fire to be burned
Extravagant scenes they make
Great things to be learned
When lichen forms upon the tree
The blossom doesn't care
It's like that with the love I gave
To you for us to share
The spider makes his web between
The flowers upon the tree
To catch the flies and watch them die
It sounds like you and me.
Refrain
I hope it will be like the flowers
Which live when they have died
What goes around must come again
When all of nature sighs
