lyrics:
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
