The Seeds of Love Lyrics & Tabs by Clark Jones
The Seeds of Love
guitar chords lyrics
I sowed the seeds of love
I sowed them in the springtime
I gathered them up in the morning so soon
When the small birds so sweetly sing
When the small birds so sweetly sing
My garden was panted well
With flowers everywhere
But I had not the liberty to choose for myself
Of the flowers that I loved so well
Of the flowers that I loved so well
The gardener was standing by
And I asked him to choose for me
He chose for me the violet, the lily and the pink
But of those I refused all three
But of those I refused all three
He chose for me the violet, the lily and the pink
But of those I refused all three
But of those I refused all three
The violet I did not like
Because it blooms too soon
The lily and the pink, I really over think
So I vowed I would wait 'til June
So I vowed I would wait 'til June
In June there was the red, red rose
And that is the flower for me
Oh, often have I plucked that red, red rose
'Til I gained the willow tree
'Til I gained the willow tree
The willow tree will twist
And the willow tree will twine
I oftentimes have wished I were
In that young woman's arms
That once held this heart of mind
That once held this heart of mind
Come all ye false young girls
Do not leave me here to complain
The grass that has often times been trampled underfoot
Give it time, it will spring up again
Give it time, it will spring up again
