Flesh and Blood

Flesh and Blood - The Hit Crew

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 need flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

Flesh and blood need 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

Flesh and blood need flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

Flesh and blood need 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 need 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 seed

Mother nature's quite a lady

But I am the one you need

Flesh and blood need flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

Flesh and blood need flesh and blood

And you're the one I need
