Flesh And Blood

Beside a singin' mountain stream where the willow grew Where the silver leaf of maple sparkled in the mornin' dew i braided twigs of willows made a string of buckeye beads; but 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 a bark of birch and i breathed the honey dew i saw a north-bound flock of geese against a sky of baby blue beside the lily 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 the song then the sun went slowly down the west and i had to move along these were some of the things On which my mind and spirit feed; but flesh and blood need 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 this day was ended i was still not satisfied for i knew ev'rything i touched would wither and would die and 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.
