Flowers For Zoe - Lenny Kravitz, Lenny Kravitz For Roxie Productions

We can plant a seed

And watch it grow

Food enough to fill a table

Running water down an overflow

Eat as much as we are able

But would the fruit turn ripe

If the rains had never been?

Chorus: Oh Lord deliver us from the elements

We at your mercy and your reverence

Oh Lord deliver us from the elements

We’ve no defense we are impotent

You can travel far to distant lands

Some so hot no man could bear

You can conquer peaks with winds of sand

Where Mother Nature didn’t care

Would not our world turn cold

If the sun refused to shine

Chorus

And when the world grows old

And we know more than our brains can hold

Nature will be law

Well we’re as helpless now as we’ve ever been before

Would not our world turn cold

If the sun refused to shine
