Scarecrow

Music by reg dwight
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Never released

Youre too low to see me smiling
When Im flying in the air
But youre too high to frighten me
Pretend you didnt see me
Pretend you didnt need me
Pretend you didnt see me
Pretend you didnt need me

To frighten away all the lost and the lonely
The sacred forgotten of yesterdays problems
Your wooden construction was meant for infliction
To penetrate pain with the thoughts from my mind

Can you see me scarecrow
Can you still feel free
For all your love scarecrow
And will you still be there tomorrow
And will you still be there tomorrow

Like moths around a light bulb, your brain is still bleeding
From visions and pictures of natures young raincoat
If only my eyes were not pinned to your table
My arms would be grasping the lilies of summer
Its no good to be a scarecrow post
And Ive said it before, and Ill say it some more
