Frederico Cristiano makes an acoustic version from an original Pyroscaphe's song

lyrics

The Walking Scarecrow

Will I ever walk the unfinished road
made by the stormy wind?
Will I ever feel the smell of dust
left by the falling rain?

I’m just a rotten pile of straw
my open arms and hands
won’t scare the birds away
at dawn, I like to hear them sing
they speak about the world
and never-ending fields

I know distant lands
though I never left this place
I know all the names of flowers and trees
though I share my seeds with crows

I’m just a rotten pile of straw
my open arms and hands
won’t scare the birds away
at dawn, I’ll put on my hat and leave
they’ll show me all the roads
to the never-ending fields

can they take me there?
