[00:13.21]	So you speak to me of sadness and the coming of the winter,
[00:20.70]	the fear that is within you now, it seems to never end.
[00:27.21]	The dreams that have escaped you,
[00:30.58]	And the hopes that you've forgotten.
[00:33.08]	You tell me that you need me now,
[00:38.08]	you want to be my friend.
[00:41.02]	And you wonder where we're going,
[00:44.52]	where's the rhyme and where is the reason?
[00:48.27]	And if you cannot accept it is here we must begin,
[00:53.14]	to seek the wisdom of the children,
[00:59.20]	and the graceful way of flowers in the wind.
[01:02.26]	For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers,
[01:10.70]	their laughter and their loveliness could clear a cloudy day.
[01:15.71]	Like the music of the mountains and the colors of the rainbow,
[01:22.73]	they're a promise of the future and a blessing for today.
[01:35.10]
[01:45.76]	Though the cities start to crumble and the towers fall around us,
[01:52.82]	the sun is slowly fading and it's colder than the sea.
[01:59.45]	It is written: ＂From the desert to the mountains they shall lead us,
[02:06.45]	by the hand and by the heart, they will comfort you and me.
[02:13.26]	In their innocence and trusting, they will teach us to be free.＂
[02:22.07]	For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers,
[02:29.13]	their laughter and their loveliness could clear a cloudy day.
[02:36.20]	And the song that I am singing is a prayer to nonbelievers:
[02:43.44]	＂Come and stand beside us, we can find a better way.＂

[00:13.21]	So you speak to me of sadness and the coming of the winter,
[00:20.70]	the fear that is within you now, it seems to never end.
[00:27.21]	The dreams that have escaped you,
[00:30.58]	And the hopes that you' ve forgotten.

[00:41.02]	And you wonder where we' re going,
[00:44.52]	where' s the rhyme and where is the reason?
