about

From the album, "A Songwriter's Nursery" (2019).

lyrics

I saw a purple flower;
I left her where she was.
I asked why she was beautiful
And she replied, "Because
The beauty that one sees
Is in the eye that looks.
You turn the muddy rivulets
Into laughing brooks."

I thanked the purple flower
For the wisdom she had shared;
That beauty's all around us--
We can see it everywhere.
If we open up our hearts
And open up our eyes
We'll see the beauty all around.
Beauty lives inside.

I saw a rusty wire
Lying on the ground
I asked the wire why oh why
Are you hanging ‘round
The wire said “It’s in your head:
The evil that you dread
You’re so hung up on fixing things
Fix yourself instead

I thanked the rusty wire
And now I know what’s true
Good and evil, black and white
Are inside me and you
If we water the flowers
And put things in their place
We can make things beautiful
For the human race
