Les Fleur - Minnie Riperton
Will somebody wear me to the fair?
Will a lady pin me in her hair?
Will a child find me by a stream,
Kiss my petals, and weave me through a dream?
For all of these simple things and much more,
a flower was born;
It blooms to spread love and joy faith
and hope to people forlorn...
Inside every man lives the seed of a flower;
If he looks within, he finds beauty and power
Ring all the bells sing
and tell the people everywhere
that the flower has come
Light up the sky
with your prayers of gladness and rejoice
for the darkness is gone
Throw off your fears let your heart beat freely
at the sign that a new time is born
For all of these simple things and much more,
a flower was born;
It blooms to spread love and joy faith
and hope to people forlorn...
Inside every man lives the seed of a flower;
If he looks within, he finds beauty and power
la-la-la-la-la-la...
