Lyrics

(Intro music by david paich; lyrics and music by james seals and dan seals, 1974)
From the albums unborn child (1974) and lift up your voices and sing, vol. 3 (1997)

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 a vapor in the desert. take a warning, son

Windflowers, their beauty captures every young dreamer who lingers near them
Ancient windflowers, I love you
