************************************ [Verse 1] 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        [Chorus] 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             [Verse 2] 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    [Chorus] And 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 Ooh 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
