[00:01.66] Les Fleurs - Minnie Riperton
[00:13.73] Will somebody wear me to the fair?
[00:17.05] ?to the morning sings a lonely flower?
[00:20.07] Will a lady pin me in her hair?
[00:24.53] ?Mmm, hmm, hmm?
[00:26.46] Will a child find me by a stream?
[00:29.66] ?daylight will give a sun-beam shower?
[00:32.61] Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream.
[00:39.03] For all of these simple things and
[00:41.50] much more a flower was born
[00:45.12] It blooms to spread love and joy faith
[00:47.85] and hope to people forlorn
[00:51.22] Inside every man lives the seed of a flower
[00:57.71]
[00:58.25] If he looks within he finds beauty and power
[01:04.64]
[01:16.30] Ring all the bells, sing and tell the people
[01:18.93] that be everywhere that the flower has come
[01:22.52] Light up the sky with your prayers of gladness
[01:25.24] and rejoice for the darkness is gone
[01:28.09]
[01:28.68] Throw off your fears, let your heart beat freely
[01:31.50] at the sign that a new time is born
[01:34.84]
[01:48.48] Mabel, Sadie, Katie, Lola roses
[01:51.60] ?Mabel, Sadie, Katie, Lola roses?
[01:54.19] Say mama nana ya, uhn-hunh
[01:58.78] ?Mmm, hmm, hmm?
[02:00.53] Lookin' for a Mabel, Katie
[02:03.08] ?looking for a Mabel, Katie?
[02:05.94] Ooh, Mabel, Sadie, Katie, Lola roses
[02:11.42] ?Mmm, hmm, hmm?
[02:13.23] For all of these simple things
[02:16.43] and much more a flower was born
[02:19.54] It blooms to spread love and joy faith
[02:23.95] and hope to people forlorn
[02:25.59] Inside every man lives the seed of a flower
[02:32.76] If he looks within he finds beauty and power
