Flower Child

You take that perfect seed You plant that love so deep You fold your hands and pray for rain Daddy liked to drink and smoke Mama thought your dreams were a joke You grew up dark in a garden of pain Like the sun and the rain forgot your name When nobody waters a flower child You get this scared little girl with a broken heart Growing wild I think I'm in love I've got the water for my flower child My love can fill this pail And bring you back to health And make those petals wanna stay You've gone from man to man to man But still you cannot stand I've got the sun right in my hands Can't you see that I will understand? I'll understand When nobody waters a flower child You get a scared little girl with a broken heart Growing wild I think I'm in love Oh my flower child I think I'm in love I've got the water for my flower child Has the light gotten through to you? Don't be afraid to say you feel it too I know inside you there's a sweet perfume When nobody waters a flower child You get this scared little girl with a broken heart Growing wild I think I'm in love I've got the water When nobody waters the flower child You get a scared little girl with a broken heart Growing wild I think I'm in love Oh my flower child I think I'm in love (I've got the water) growing wild, I think I'm in love (I could bring my love to you) flower child I think I'm in love --- Flower Child - Thomas Helmig
