Love blossoms in a thousand colors It buds in our hearts and blooms in gestures of kindess Petals that softly caress away tears Envelope us in fragrance, the sweet embrace of loved ones lost Humanity burns in six billion candles Melting wax day by day, warming the world So many snuffed out before their time Some still living-dead, burnt out of compassion A little boy asks what use are flowers and candles They are gestures of love and humanity Which do actually protect us from violence

Flowers and Candles
Love blossoms in a thousand colors It buds in our hearts and blooms in gestures of kindess Petals that softly caress away tears Envelope us in fragrance, the sweet embrace of loved ones lost Humanity burns in six billion candles Melting wax day by day, warming the world So many snuffed out before their time Some still living-dead, burnt out of compassion A little boy asks what use are flowers and candles They are gestures of love and humanity Which do actually protect us from violence
