15.Windflowers(Artist: Seals and crofts)
windflowers. my father told me
not to go near them.
he said he feared them always .
and he told me that they carried him away
windflowers
windflowers, beautiful windflowers
i couldn't wait to touch them,
to smell them i held them closely.
and now i cannot break away.
their sweet bouquet disappears
like the vapor in the desert.
so take a warning, son.
windflowers
windflowers. ancient windflowers.
their beauty captures every young dreamer
who lingers near them.
but ancient windflowers, i love you.
windflowers, my father told me not to go near them.
he feared them always, said they carried him away.
windflowers, i couldn't wait to touch them,
to smell them, i held them closely.
now, i cannot break away.
their sweet bouquet disappears
like the vapor in the desert.
take a warning, son.
windflowers,
their beauty captures every young dreamer
who lingers near them.
