Thomas Helmig - Flower Child lyrics

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 a scared little girl with a broken heart Growing wild I think Iâ??m in love Iâ??ve got the water for my flower child My love can fill this pail And bring you back to health And make those petals want to stay Youâ??ve gone from man to man to man But still you can not stand Iâ??ve got the sun right in my hands Canâ??t you see that I will understand? When nobody waters a flower child You get a scared little girl with a broken heart Growing wild I think Iâ??m in love Oh my flower child I think Iâ??m in love Iâ??ve got the water for my flower child Has the light gotten through to you? Donâ??t be afraid to say you feel it too I know inside you thereâ??s a sweet perfume
