Inside A Flower

Hold back the time

Just let it hang

Stop the seconds, minutes and hours

And if I give you love

Will you let me keep myself

I'm sitting out here on the very edge of earth

Looking through a book from long before the world began

The man who gave it to me didn't have a name

And over head, the sun is running down the day

The book begins it's story

Tells of war and hate and tells of power

The promises of freedom

And of all religions, love and ways of life

Close your time inside a flower

Stop the seconds, minutes, hours

Close your time inside a flower

Live your life, forget the power

The people passing by, they stop to look at me

They all think I'm crazy 'cause I'm laughing in the wind

But I am free to be whatever I may choose

To win this freedom I know that somebody had to lose

Learn of those who buy love

Read about those willing to sell it

And when we're born it's for love

Some of us will die just to get it

What you gotta do is

Close your time inside a flower

Stop the seconds, minutes, hours

Close your time inside a flower

Live your life, forget the power

Forget the power, forget the power

We can give our love away and never lose ourselves

But no one can be something that you own

And if you think you've got the right to tell me

What I am

I've got no trouble leaving you alone

Close your time inside a flower

Stop the seconds, minutes, hours

Close your time inside a flower

Live your life, forget the power (Close your time inside a flower)

(Stop the seconds, minutes, hours)

(Close your time inside a flower)

(Live your life, forget the power)

(Close your time inside a flower)

(Stop the seconds, minutes, hours)

(Close your time inside a flower)

(Live your life, forget the power)

(Close your time inside a flower)

(Stop the seconds, minutes, hours)

(Close your time inside a flower)

(Live your life, forget the power)
