Let the Flower Grow Lyrics by Jay Leonhart

Salamander Pie

0

Don't take a boy, turn him into a soldier
Don't teach a boy how to kill
Don't take a boy and teach him to be tough
He will learn that soon enough, yes he will
Don't take a boy and bury his feelings
Buried feelings will not make a man
Don't take a boy, teach him life's dirty dealings
Take a boy, hold him tight while you can
Yes, let the flower grow, and the man that you will know
Will have the strength of which you dream
And someday he'll be grown, have a mind all his own
Thinkin' thoughts that run clear
And thoughts that run beautiful
Like a clear crystal stream
Yes, let the flower grow, and the man that you will know
Will have the strength of which you dream
And someday he'll be grown, have a mind all his own
Thinkin' thoughts that run clear
And thoughts that run beautiful
Like a clear crystal stream
