If I were a desert flower
All winter long Id pain and cower
Spring would make me sing
My voice would ring
As tiny buds begin to bloom
In spring Id blossom and forget
The winters gloom.
If I were a brook of water
Kissed by the frost along my borders
Spring would make me sing my voice would ring
As Id release my ice chains
In spring Id bubble and forget the winters rains.
But I am only a child of man
I am only a child of man
Just an innocent child of man

Dont look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
Dsus7/9* * (*)
Its the sunlight in the skies that is making me so.

If I were a joyful songbird
All winter long so cold and somber
Spring would make me sing
My voice would ring like tiny bells on scarves of silk
A song as beautiful and pure as mothers milk.
But I am only a child of man
I am only a child of man
Just an innocent child of man
Dont look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
Its the sunlight in the skies that is making me so.
Don't be surprised - By this look in my eyes
Like a flower or tree - I will bloom in the spring
I will shed all my woes - As the green grass grows
Like a flower or tree - I will throw my head back and sing
If I were a desert flower, desert flower..
