Les Fleur

Les Fleur - Minnie Ripperton

Will somebody wear me to the fair

(to the morning sings a lonely flower)

Will a lady pin me in her hair

(Mmm hmm hmm)

Will a child find me by a stream

(daylight will give a sun-beam shower)

Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream

For all of these simple things and

Much more a flower was born

It blooms to spread love and

Joy faith and hope to people forlorn

Inside every man lives the seed of a flower

If he looks within he finds beauty and power

Ring all the bells sing and tell the people

That be everywhere that the flower has come

Light up the sky with your prayers of gladness

And rejoice for the darkness is gone

Throw off your fears let your heart beat freely

At the sign that a new time is born

Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses

(Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses)

Say mama nana ya uhn-hunh

(Mmm hmm hmm)

Lookin' for a Mabel Katie

(looking for a Mabel Katie)

Ooh Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses

(Mmm hmm hmm)

For all of these simple things and

Much more a flower was born

It blooms to spread love and joy faith

And hope to people forlorn

Inside every man lives the seed of a flower

If he looks within he finds beauty and power
