Flesh And Blood - Live

Beside a singing mountain stream

Where the willow grew

Where the silver leaf of maple

Sparkled in the morning dew

I braided twigs of willows

Made a string of buckeye beads

But flesh and blood needs flesh And blood

And you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs 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

Mother Nature's quite a lady

But you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs 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 needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need.

So when this day was ended

I was still not satisfied

For I knew everything I touched

Would wither and would die

And love is all that will remain

And grow from all these seeds

Mother Nature's quite a lady

But you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need.
