[00:08.110] So you speak to me of sadness and the coming of the winter,
[00:15.000] the fear that is within you now, it seems to never end.
[00:21.510] And the dreams that have escaped you,
[00:24.880] And the hopes that you've forgotten.
[00:28.100] And you tell me that you need me now,
[00:33.100] And you want to be my friend.
[00:35.500] And you wonder where we're going,
[00:38.820] where's the rhyme and where is the reason?
[00:42.570] And if you cannot accept it is here we must begin,
[00:47.440] to seek the wisdom of the children,
[00:53.500] and the graceful way of flowers in the wind.
[00:56.560] For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers,
[01:05.000] their laughter and their loveliness could clear a cloudy day.
[01:10.010] Like the music of the mountains and the colors of the rainbow,
[01:11.930] they're a promise of the future and a blessing for today.
[01:29.859] Though the cities start to crumble and the towers fall around us,
[01:36.020] the sun is slowly fading and it's colder than the sea.
[01:39.050] It is written: "From the desert to the mountains they shall lead us,
[01:55.950] by the hand and by the heart, they will comfort you and me.
[02:23.460] In their innocence and trusting, they will teach us to be free."
[02:32.900] For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers,
[02:40.230] their laughter and their loveliness could clear a cloudy day.
[02:50.000] And the song that I am singing is a prayer to nonbelievers:
[02:50.340] "Come and stand beside us, we can find a better way."
[00:08.110] So you speak to me of sadness and the coming of the winter,
[00:15.000] the fear that is within you now, it seems to never end.
[00:21.510] And the dreams that have escaped you,
[00:24.880] And the hopes that you' ve forgotten.
[00:28.100] And you tell me that you need me now,
[00:33.100] And you want to be my friend.
[00:35.500] And you wonder where we' re going,
[00:38.820] where' s the rhyme and where is the reason?
[00:42.570] And if you cannot accept it is here we must begin,
