Beside a singing mountain stream Where the willow grew Where the silver leaf of maple Sparkles in the morning dew I braided twigs of willow Made a string of buckeye beads Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood And you're the one I need Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood And you're the one I need. I leaned against the bark of birch And I breathed the honeydew I saw a northbound flock of geese Against a sky of baby blue Beside the lilly pads I carved a whistle from a reed Mother Nature's quite a lady But you're the one I need Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood And you're the one I need. A cardinal sang just for me And I thanked him for his song Then the sun set slowly down the West And I had to move along These are some of the things On which my mind and spirit feed Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood And you're the one I need Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood And you're the one I need. So, when the day was ended I was still not satisfied For I knew everything I touched Would wither and would die Love is all that will remain And grow from all these seeds Mother Nature's quite a lady But you're the one I need Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood And you're the one I need. ?'s [email protected]
