Each of Us Is a Flower

about

That same sense of time and rhythm lets her make some canny connections. In the children’s song “Each of Us Is a Flower”—written as a cha-cha-cha—she hears the transposition into bossa, but also the hidden depths she can bring to its facile melody.
Mike West, Washington City Paper

lyrics

Each of us is a flower
Growing in life's garden
Each of us is a flower
We need the sun and rain
(repeat)

Sun shine your warmth on me
Moon cool me with your night
Wind bring the gentle rain
Earth dig my roots down deep

Each of us is a flower
Growing in life's garden
Each of us is a flower
Growing in life's garden

Each of us is a flower
Growing in life's garden
Each of us is a flower
We need the sun and rain
