Not All The Flowers Grow

Strawbs - Not All The Flowers Grow



If the school bell had rung

Would it have rung a death knell?

Now the dark day has gone

And there isn't any bell



In the flower of their youth

How were they to know?

And now there's so few left

And not all the flowers grow



Just think how you would feel

Had one been a child of yours

And you look out every day

And still see the coal seam sores



To remind you of that day

Just you look out in the rain

And although some children p1ay

It will never be the same
