Just Like You

1973

Buttercups, daisies
And most anything
They wither and fade
After blossom in Spring

Time conquers innocence
Pride takes a fall
In knowledge lies wisdom
That’s all

Everything changes
Weather blows hot or cold
Through alchemy iron turns gold

Quicksilver baby
So hard to pin down
Oh when are you coming around?

Hopelessly grounded
I walk through the streets
Remembering how we spent time
Hopefully yearning
That some day we’ll meet
But when will we? How could we? Why?
Oh my

Fashion house ladies
Need plenty loose change
When the latest creation
Is last year’s fab rave

Thought patterns hazy
This auto-style age
Will lady luck smile old and sage

She knows that never again, no
Will I give up my heart
To gamble with fate is my crime
Nevertheless love
It’s all here in my book
I’d write it but don’t have much time

You see I know it sounds crazy
But what can I do?
I’ve fallen head over heels
Over you

Chameleon colour
All phases of moon
The shifting of planets
And leopard spots too

As destiny wills it
So seasons will change
Just like you
