Where Have All The Flowers Gone melody
A vocal track that anyone can finish producing, alter in any way, & sell. Sad love song ( Nothing at all like the Pete Seeger song. )
I've been creating all kinds of songs for over 30 years, but I never sell any of them. I try to give them away to charities that have musician spokespeople, but
Story behind the song
This wasn't inspird by the Pete Seeger song, & it's nothing like it. I'd heard it, but I'm more of a rocker than folksy, & I just put together as much powerful imagery as I could muster up.
Lyrics
It used to be so easy just to fall in love & have some fun,
Now no one seems to give it, they're just looking out for number one,
It makes me stop & ask myself just what the hell is going on.
And where have all the flowers gone that used to decorate our lawn,
The touch of her cheek against the palm of my hand.
And what became of happiness, a tender smile, a gentle kiss,
They've left & it's so very hard to understand.
Love is wilting, like a faded flower,
We've dropped our guard, now it's so hard to live another hour.
Love is jilting, like a two-timed lover,
We've lost the trust, this time we must face lightening without cover.
( Instrumental )
Love is falling, like an angel that has died,
It hurts to see the love that we let slip away & hide.
Love is calling, I listen & I seek,
Although I cry, I have to try to get another peek.
And where have all the flowers gone, those blossoms, were they all a
con,
My hands felt no resistance in her long, brown hair.
And where could all that joy have went, that certainty, that
heaven-sent,
Will love ever return to me & be more fair?
Love is wilting,
We've dropped our guard, now it's so hard to live another hour,
Love is falling,
It hurts to see the love that we let slip away & hide,
Love is jilting,
We've lost the trust, this time we must face lightening without cover.
Love is calling,
Although I cry, I have to try to get another peek.
And where have all the flowers gone, that used to decorate our lawn?
And what became of happiness, a tender smile, a gentle kiss?
And where could all that joy have went, that certainty, that
heaven-sent?
And where have all the flowers gone?
Yes, where have all the flowers gone?
Now where have all the flowers gone?
Yes where have all those flowers gone?
