lyrics

Artificial Flowers

Artificial flowers never die
artificial flowers never die
imitation posy or ring a ring of rosy
artificial flowers never die.

Lilies fragile petals white
tulips bright will fade with light
roses true lose their perfume
but artificial flowers never die

Chrysanthemum it's splendour wanes
daffodils have springtime fame
carnation's friendship lasts a while
but artificial flowers never die

Fresh bouquet in grandeur stood
synthetic fern and acorn wood
watch as nature takes its course
artificial flowers never die
artificial flowers never die.
