Flowers of the Forest

Richard Thomson: lead guitar Rose Simpson: bass Dave Mattacks: drums Sweet love the words that made you cry They came from one that don't have love like we do Even if you'd give him all your sweet love Probably turn his back and walk away Lookin' for a trick and he wouldn't understand That you just want to stretch out your hand You know he's closed himself to all the grief and pain that he can't stand And he's bound his heart with an iron band Come dry your tears like the sun dries the rain Deep is the river running through my life Full shines the sun upon it The girl I love swims there all day long You know she is bright as the flowers of the forest The tender tears in your smiling eyes They meld me right to my soul We have to part now for a while But our lives will cross for ever You'll bless every place you pass through So much good in all you do I can't understand how anyone could hurt you so bad So sad to see them hide from what they are Me I know you like I know the song in my soul It's gonna be all right
