So you speak to me in sadness of the coming of the winter, |
| [00:30.09] |
fear that is within' you now that seems to never end, |
| [00:36.11] |
and the dreams that have escaped you and the hope that you've forgotten |
| [00:42.41] |
and you tell me that you need me now and you want to be my friend |
| [00:48.65] |
and you wonder where we're going, where's the rhyme and where's the reason |
| [00:55.35] |
and it's you cannot accept it is here we must begin |
| [01:01.48] |
to seek the wisdom of the children |
| [01:07.81] |
and the graceful way of flowers in the wind. |
| [01:14.45] |
For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers, |
| [01:21.46] |
their laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy day. |
| [01:28.00] |
Like the music of the mountains and the colors of the rainbow |
| [01:34.53] |
they're a promise of the future and the blessing for today. |
| [01:43.46] |
|
| [01:49.23] |
Though the city starts to crumble and the towers fall around us |
| [01:56.02] |
the sun is slowly fading and it's colder than the sea |
| [02:02.25] |
it is written: From the desert to the mountains they shall lead us |
| [02:08.76] |
by the hand and by the heart and they will comfort you and me. |
| [02:15.16] |
In their innocence and trusting, they will teach us to be free. |
| [02:23.02] |
For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers, |
| [02:30.42] |
their laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy day. |
| [02:36.66] |
And the song that I am singing is a prayer for nonbelievers |
| [02:43.42] |
come and stand beside us we can find a better way. |
| [02:54.25] |
