Flesh and Blood - Instrumental

Beside a singin' mountain stream where the willow grew

Where the silver leaf of maple sparkled in the mornin' 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 the 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 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

So when the day was ended I was still not satisfied

For I knew ev'rything I touched would wither and would die

And love is all that will remain and grow from all these seed

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
