Warm sun on the ground
A flower growing stronger
Life under the sun

What Child Is This? (feat. The London Symphony Orchestra)

Yesterday the rains came down, there was darkness all around
They told me you had gone to find a new life
But you left no word of where you\\\'d gone, I fell right to the ground
And I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, I\\\'m amazed at the change in me
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly
I watched the ever-flowing stream as it washed away my dream
I felt like diving in and taking a ride
But the stranger took me by the hand and held me by his side
When I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, I\\\'m amazed at the change in me
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly
When I remember how I cried and how I nearly died
All for a man who had gone to find a new life
Now I can laugh, my friend\\\'s so fine he never seemed to mind
When I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, I\\\'m amazed at the change in me
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly, yeah

Water Under The Bridge

(lordan)
Yesterday the rains came down, there was darkness all around
They told me you had gone to find a new life
But you left no word of where youd gone, I fell right to the ground
And I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again

He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, Im amazed at the change in me

You Are Like A Flower

You are like a flower
Growing in beauty
Nature has its own way
Making you uniquely
So I’ll wait until the day
You sprout with love
Because anything less
Would not be enough
You are like a flower
Strong with the wind
Never giving up your roots

You grow and never let loose
Should I protect you anymore?
When the strength you have
Is already within you
You are like a flower
Giving off good qualities
Selfless and fragrant
Keeping yourself steady
You know something new
Comes out everyday
You are like a flower
You attract attention
With your good look
You are sensitive
It is what makes you strong
Though you can be easily plucked
You fight for your life
You decide what is what
You are a like a flower
For a flower is honest
What you see is what you get
You stand out like a flower should
I will remember how gentle you are
A flower in need of love, you are set
Because even if you are all these
You are soft and delicate
It’s my pleasure to make sure
That nothing changes it
My Flower

Little flower

It seems she is the beautiest flower.
Hidden in the darkest tower.
Hidden in the deepest dark.
Wearing all her thorns so sharp.

The flower I do like so much.
The flower I'm not allowed to touch.
The flower I'm thinking of.
Although she's sometimes so rough.

Flower of my misery.
Shine on in eternaty.
Flower of my happiness.
Eased away my deep distress.

The flower is so far away.
Watch her growing day by day.
She lives on the other side.
But she makes my days so bright.

I've Been Loving You Too Long

Otis redding/j butler
Roy's version bears little similarity to the original
Otis version (original)
There were time and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger,
As you become a haven to me
Oh i've been loving you a little too long
I dont wanna stop now, oh with you my life,
Has been so wonderful i can't stop now
There were times and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger
As our affair [affair] grows old
I've been loving you a little too long, long,
I don't want to stop now oh, oh, oh
I've been loving you a little bit too long
I don't wanna stop now no, no, no
Don't make me stop now, no baby
I'm down on my knees please,
Don't make me stop now
I love you, i love you,
I love you with all of my heart
And i can't stop now don't make me stop now
Please, please don't make me stop now
[good god of mine]i love you
I love you, i love you, i love you
I love you, i love you
I love you in so many different ways...
I love you in so many different ways....
Roy version
I've been loving you a little too long
To stop right now
You're tired, and you wanna be free
My love is growing stronger
As you become a habit to me
Ooh, and loving you a little too long
I don't wanna stop right now
Oh with you my life has been so wonderful
I just can't stop now
You're tired and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger
As our affair grows old
And i've been loving you a little too long
I don't wanna stop now
Ooh, too long, long
Don't wanna stop my loving you right now
No, oh i've been loving you a little too long
To stop right now
Ooh, loving you a little too long
To stop right now
No, no, i can't stop now. no
Loving you a little too long
To stop right now, i can't stop...

Come Back As A Flower

The starngest thought came to me on this morning
As I awake to greet the coming dawn
The sun was hardly peaking through the garden
It felt that with everything I was one
Then I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower
As a flower
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower
To spread the sweetness of love
To spread the sweetness of love
The dew had finished making love to many
A rainbow smelling sweet was in the air
I envied all the silence I saw growing
So unmoved by things outside themselves
Then how I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower
As a flower
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower
To spread the sweetness of love
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
Oh as a flower
As a flower
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower
As a flower
To spread the sweetness of love
To spread the sweetness of love
(background)
Wished that I could come back as a flower
Flower
Flower
Wished that I could come back as a flower
Flower
Sweetness of love
How I come back as a flower
Flower
Flower
How I come back as a flower
Flower
Sweetness of love
Sweetness of love

The Deeper The Love

(coverdale/vandenberg)
When I look back
On everything Ive done
I know you must have cried
A river of tears,
But, you were there
When I was feeling low
To walk me through my darkest fears
So when the sun goes down
An those nights grow colder,
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder
An the deeper the love
The stronger the emotion,
An the stronger the love
The deeper the devotion
There were times
I almost let you go
When I thought I needed to break free,
But you were there
To whisper in my ear
Why dont you share my dreams with me.
So when the sun goes down
An those nights are growing colder
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder.
An the deeper the love
The stronger the emotion,
An the stronger the love
The deeper the devotion
I dont mind, what youre doing to me,
I dont mind, cause youre all I can see
I dont mind, baby, you mean the world to me
When the sun goes down
An those nights are growing colder,
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder, baby, baby, baby.
So when the sun goes down
An those nights are growing colder,
I will be there
Looking over your shoulder.
cause the deeper the love
The stronger the emotion,
An the stronger the love
The deeper the devotion...
I never gonna let you go,
In my heart, I know.
I love you, I love you.
Oh baby, I really love you...

Gravity vs Money

Power of gravity is physical
Power of money is mental
Let’s find out for ourselves
Which one is stronger and more elemental?

And for as long as I could remember
Power of gravity stays the same
Power of money is always growing
Growing, growing until it’s insane

Power of gravity drags you down
Allow you firmly to stand on your feet
Power of money will fly you over
To Paris, Rome, New York or Madrid

To prove ones and for all
In a very bold experiment
I will dropp one hundred dollars bill
On New York city street pavement

I tried and tried, time and again
Results were consistent, always the same
Even if nobody was standing around
The bill almost never hit the ground!

The Flower By The Path

A FLOWER was growing alone,
Then alone and for ever alone:
Some one came by,
Saw the flower how fair it had grown,
Chose it, plucked it to die.

And what is a flower alone,
Then alone and for ever alone,
Come no one by?
Why should a flower be fair for its own?
Choose it, pluck it to die.

into your life that's full of hope

with blackish orange in colours on me
I will never fly away from you
and never stop watching over you

The Growing Consciousness

for such is the true nature of our state
the growing consciousness

always the unfolding of the petals to become
the flower
the sprouting of the seeds
the ripening of the fruit
the surprises of the buds like tips of your fingers

for always the sun spreads its rays and shows its dominion for the day
for always the moon shall transform paleness to fullness
to the joys of our eyes
to the satisfaction of our feelings and longings

for always the leaves thicken themselves and they fall
only to grow the greener leaves again

for always my dear from you fall you shall rise
from your silence you must be tranquil
for always you must keep the hope growing
the love stronger
for always you must believe that things will always turn better
that at the end there shall be this perfection
of who we are and what shall we become

believe in this wisdom and you shall begin to hear the songs.

Flower on the Wall

Flower on the Wall

What is your story

I can guess

Blessed be by thy name

Holy is the ground

What has fallen

What is left

Only a flower

That fades with every coming hour

Life walks by

The flower dies

Symbolic is the sight

For those connected it brings fright

Flower on the wall

You bring meaning

A chance for reflection

A beauty that dies

This is nature

To gaze upon you makes me cry

A Flower's fate

a flower lived happily in a garden,
there is a small room for the warden.
a naughty boy plucked the flower,
and ran away so far.
he kept the flower in his home,
the kept place is so warm.
the beautiful flower dried,
the naughty boy cried.

A little Flower

A flower grew out of the ground
A tiny flower from the dirt
A tiny living soul from underground
A baby crawling from the dirt
A little innocence of wild color
A tiny spark of hope
A tiny pleasure free of charge
A flower that i called my own
A little baby ran towards it
A tiny flower crushed beneath the feet
A little human innocence
A little bliss destroyed by ignorance
A little flower dead on the ground
A little baby jumping up and down
And only me from my own window, witnessed the death of my own flower beneath the feet of blissful child without idea of his first crime...

Perfect Flower

growing out of the ground
digging deep and far
topped with beauty
emmitting the fragrance of love

brittle through the body
strong in the roots
but thats all that matters
for that keeps them going

shining its beauty
letting everyone see it
all the time

spreading its sweet smell
with everyone that comes in contact
making them happy

sorting through the flowers
searching for the only one
that can fill the hole
that he has dug

he sees it in his sight
the sweet aroma
the loving vibe
the joy it gives his heart
the beauty
the perfect flower

gently grasping it
choosing it for his taking
only a few faults show
but the beauty overshadows the faults

in his eyes nothing's better
noone could ever replace her
with this flower his hole is full
it's the perfect fit

giving this flower
radiating with its majestic beauty
to his one true love
the perfect flower to the perfect love

you're all i want
all I've ever dreamed of
and in this perfect flower
our love will live on

In The Flower Garden

In the flower garden
The flowers are pink and white
The sky is blue
And it drags along the clouds of white

Friends of mine are waiting for me
Friends of mine are waiting to give me information
and advice

After receiving careful words from my friends
I continue on my way through the flower garden

In the flower garden
I spy my animal friends
A lizard and a bee
Both willing to help me
Either by running along the ground
Flying in the air
Or climbing a tree
Both are willing to help me get to safety
Both are willing to help me to survive
With all the obstacles, snakes, and evil seeds
around

After besting all the enemies
My animal friends and I reach the end of the
flower garden
They've done their job
And for that I'm grateful

I wish my animal friends well
Offering them a warm goodbye
As they make their way back to the flower garden
And leave me to continue on my adventure

Life is Like A Flower

Life is like a flower.
It starts out as a seed,
Then a root,
A stem with a leaf,
Leaves and then a beautiful flower.

A baby.
Then learns how 2 talk,
Then the child is a flower.

Life is like a flower,
You are a flower

The Flower

Well this flower is my soul
But it's not half of what I owe
I should give you every rose that I ever grew
But take this one here for a start
And you can keep it in your heart
I have everything I need because of you

Well if my life was long enough
to pack up everything I love
I would do just that and give it all to you
But it's impossible to pay
All the things that you gave away
Si this flower I give will have to do

All the flowers growing wild
For ten thousand lonely miles
It's not near enough to give you what I should
So I will owe you for a while
Maybe longer than my life
I would give you all the world if I could

I've Been Loving You Too Long

There were time and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger, as you become a haven to me
Oh I've been loving you a little too long
