Flowers Lyrics
[Intro]
(We) We (Hold the key), hold the key
(To the world's) The world's (Destiny), destiny
[Verse 1]
Have you the feelin' to shine your light
Usin' the power, shinin' bright
Years we've been searchin', want to be (Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh)
All the good things, good things, we're able to see
Your heart's a fire, create for you, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Love and desire, hearts of true
Mmm, mmm-mmm, ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Chorus]
(Think it over) Yeah (Ooh)
(Life ain't a four leaf clover) Oh, no it ain't (Ooh)
(Think it over) Brother (Ooh)
(Life ain't a four leaf clover, ooh) Ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Love is a flower, from that a bud
To spread its sunshine and make us love
Beautiful colors shinin' though (Bless you, brother)
Bless you, brother (God is watchin' you) God is watchin' you, woo
[Chorus]
(Think it over) Oh-ho, ho (Ooh)
(Life ain't a four leaf clover) No-no-no-no, no-no-no (Ooh)

[Verse 1]
Have you the feelin' to shine your light
Usin' the power, shinin' bright
Years we've been searchin', want to be (Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh)
All the good things, good things, we're able to see
Your heart's a fire, create for you, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Love and desire, hearts of true
Mmm, mmm-mmm, ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Chorus]

Love is a flower, let it shine on through (Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, you know where it's comin' from, God is watchin' you, oh yes, He is
Oh, listen, this is the time (Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh)
Let that flower bloom all over you, you, you-you, ooh-hoo
[Outro]
We hold the key
(To the world's) Brothers, come together in love (Destiny)
You see, it's like a flower sent from above
(We) Let that flower bloom (Hold the key) All over you and me
(To the world's) All over the world (Destiny)
Do you know what I mean? Woo

Oh, you know where it's comin' from, God is watchin' you, oh yes, He is
Oh, listen, this is the time (Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh)
Let that flower bloom all over you, you, you-you, ooh-hoo

What did The Emotions say about "Flowers"?
Genius Answer
Just to indicate to you how fantastic [Maurice White] is, he started writing “Flowers” whilst we were still recording and it seemed almost as if it took just a day for him to complete it – he said that being around us provided the inspiration.
