Peter, Paul & Mary - Rhymes & Reasons Lyrics
So you speak to me of sadness and the coming of the winterFear that is with-in you now that seems to never endAnd the dreams that have escaped youAnd the hope that youve forgottenAnd you tell me that you need me nowAnd you want to be my friendAnd you wonder where were going,Wheres the rhyme and wheres the reason,And its you cannot accept it is here we must beginTo seek the wisdom of the childrenAnd the graceful way of flowers in the windFor the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothersTheir laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy dayLike the music of the mountains and the colors of the rainbowTheyre a promise of the future and a blessing for today.tho the cities start to crumble and the towers fall around usThe sun is slowly fading and its colder than the seaIt is written from the desert to the mountains they shall lead usBy the hand and by the heart they will comfort you and meIn their innocence and trusting they will teach us to be freeFor the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothersTheir laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy dayAnd the song that I am singing is a prayer to non-believersCome and stand beside us, we can find a better way
