Seeds of Life (feat. Eddie Palmieri & Jimmy Norman)

Man plants a seed, and a flower grows

Blossom fragrance of a perfumed rose

Man plants a seed of love in his woman's soul

Know not does he of just what will grow

No, he can't be sure of what will harvest there

Will be be soft love or hard despair?

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds

Man plants a seed, and a baby's born

So full of life in a world that's gone wrong

Man plants a seed in the mother's mind

That this child of theirs will make things fine

Still he can't see that her love won't last

Because fickleness is a woman's halloween mask

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds

A man is planted after a life of grief

In a lonely cemetery plot covered by one single wreath

Now, all of his life, he placed no one above

Now his woman cries for a dead man's love

Oh, what a waste, shucks, what a waste

Oh, what a waste of a man's life

Shucks

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds

Oh, what a waste

Oh, what a waste

Oh, what a waste

Oh, what a waste

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds of life

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds

Those are the seeds
