Where have the flowers gone, sun-children?
Your shirts are loud and your hair is long
Now do you ever think we'll make it
Something more than a uniform?
And we're almost there
We learn to love and we learn to give
And we earn the flowers in our hair (in our hair)
Where has the vision gone, sun-children? (sun-children)
Colours glow but your eyes are closed
I swear I still believe we'll make it (we'll make it)
In your eyes I see your soul
And we're almost there
We learn to love and we learn to give
And we earn the flowers in our hair, my friend
So take my hand
One day is always too far away
And we learn to love and we learn to give
And we learn to love and we learn to give
I wish we had the hearts of children (of children)
Their eyes are wide and their love is pure
We only dare to say 'please love me'
At the seventh glass of wine
And we're almost there
And we learn to love and we learn to give
And we earn the flowers in our hair, my friend
So take my hand
One day is always too far away
And we're almost there
And we learn to love and we learn to give
And we earn the flowers in our hair, my friend
So take my hand
One day is always too far away
