Seeds Of Love Lyrics - Singles - Clancy Brothers

I sowed the seeds of love 

I sowed them in the springtime 

Gathered them up in the morning so soon 

While small birds sweetly sing 

While small birds sweetly sing 

My garden was planted well 

With flowers everywhere 

I had not the liberty to choose for myself 

The flower I held most dear 

The gardener standing by 

Three flowers he gave to me 

He gave me the violet, the lily and the pink 

But I refused all three 

The violet I did not like 

Because it fades so soon 

The lily and the pink I did overthink 

And vowed I would wait til June 

For in June is the red, red rose 

And that's the flower for me 

Ofttimes Have I plucked that red rosy bush 

And gained a willow tree 

Now the willow tree may twist 

And the willow tree may twine 

I wish I was lying in that young woman's arms 

That once held this heart of mine
