Artificial Flowers Lyrics - Beyond The Sea - Soundtrack

Alone in the world, was poor little Anne 

As sweet a young child as you'd find 

Her parents had gone, to their final reward 

Leavin' their baby behind. 

Did ya hear this poor little child 

Was only nine years of age 

When mother and dad went away 

Still she bravely worked 

At the one thing she knew 

To earn her few pennies a day 

She made artificial flowers 

Artificial flowers 

Flowers for ladies of fashion to wear 

She made artificial flowers 

You know, those artificial flowers 

Fashioned from Annie's despair

With paper and shears 

With some wire and wax 

She made up each tulip and mum 

As snowflakes drifted 

Into her tenement room 

Her baby little fingers grew numb 

From makin' artificial flowers 

Those artificial flowers 

Flowers for ladies of high fashion to wear 

She made artificial flowers 

Artificial flowers 

Made from Annie's despair 

They found little Annie 

All covered with ice 

Still clutchin' her poor frozen shears 

Amidst all the blossoms 

She had fashioned by hand 

And watered with all her young tears

There must be a Heaven 

Where little Annie can play 

In Heavenly gardens and bowers 

And instead of a halo 

She'll wear 'round her head 

A garland of genuine flowers 

No more artificial flowers 

Throw away those artificial flowers 

Flowers for ladies of society to wear 

Throw away those artificial flowers 

Those dumb-dumb flowers 

Fashioned from Annie's 

Fashioned from Annie's despair 

Give her the real thing
