Stevie Wonder, Syreeta - Come Back As a Flower lyrics

The strangest thought came to
Me on this morning
As I awoke to greet the coming dawn
The sun was hardly peaking through the garden
It felt that with everything I was one

Then I wished that I could
Come back as a flower as a flower
As a flower how I wished that I could
Come back as a flower as a flower
To spread the sweetness of love
To spread the sweetness of love

The dew had finished making love to many
A rainbow smelling sweet was in the air
I envied all the silence I saw growing
So unmoved by things outside of themselves

Then how I wished that I could
Come back as a flower as a flower
As a flower how I wished that I could
Come back as a flower as a flower
To spread the sweetness of love
How I wished that I could
Come back as a flower oh, as a flower
As a flower how I wished that I could
Come back as a flower as a flower
To spread the sweetness of love
To spread the sweetness of love
