Every flower's reachin' for the sun Every petal opens when the day has just begun Even in the city where they grow up through the street Every blossom needs the sunshine to makes its life complete. Some are torn out by the roots and cast aside And some might be arranged for a bride A flower's just a seed when it's young And every flower's reaching for the sun. Some are bent by fears they cannot see And some are touched by love and set free A flower's just a seed when it's young And every flower's reaching, every flower's reaching Every flower's reaching for the sun.
