The Flower And The Young Man(Album Version) - Strawbs

作词：Dave Cousins

作曲：Dave Cousins

While seasons change in timely way

The salt sea ever flows

Where open moors lie cold and bleak

A single flower grows

Though winter snows fall deep and long

The flower grows the while

The weary traveller passing by

Feels warmer for her smile

Sunshine and the tender flower

Both melt the young man's heart

But he who lingers waits his turn

Must learn to play his part

Through summer days of warmth and love

The young man tends his flower

But blinded by their colours bright

Heeds not the passing hour

The autumn trees once clothed with gold

Now frayed and sadly worn

The flower bids a chill farewell

The young man's heart is torn

While seasons change in timely way

The salt sea ever flows

Where open moors lie cold and bleak

A single flower grows
