Seals and Crofts Windflower Lyrics

windflowers, my father told me not to go near them
he said he feared them always,
and he told me that they carried him away
windflowers, beautiful windflowers
i couldn\'t wait to touch them,
to smell them i held them closely
and now i cannot break away
their sweet bouquet disappears
like the vapor in the desert
so take a warning, son
windflowers, ancient windflowers
their beauty captures every young dreamer who lingers near them
but ancient windflowers, i love you
windflowers, my father told me not to go near them
he feared them always, said they carried him away
windflowers, i couldn\'t wait to touch them
to smell them i held them closely
now i cannot break away
their sweet bouquet disappears like the vapor in the desert
take a warning, son
windflowers,
their beauty captures every young dreamer who lingers near them
ancient windflowers, i love you
