FLOWER CHILD OF SPRINGTIME

©1979 – words and music by John R. Black, ℗ 42nd Street Music Seattle

 

You came into the meadow at the closing of the day

After a spring shower out along my way

Nearly every flower was broken and undone

By the spring shower that chased away the sun

Flowers of the sun

Flowers of the rain

Flowers break apart and never are the same

Flowers grow by sun and the petals fall by rain

Showers on my heart

Will I ever know your name

Will you come and sleep with me 

Forever in the morning dew

Will you come and hold me close

And take my heart so true

Flowers of the sun

Flowers of the rain

Flowers break apart and never are the same

Flowers grow by sun and the petals fall by rain

Showers on our heart

Will our love grow just the same

Flower child of springtime

A heart of golden dew

My lover now and forever

I need the springtime and you

If you come and sleep with me

Forever in the morning dew

I will lay and hold you close

And give my heart to you

Flowers of the sun

Flowers of the rain

Flowers break apart and never are the same

Flowers grow by sun and the petals fall by rain

Showers on our heart

Will our love grow just the same
