Stevie Wonder song - The secret life of plants


Beautiful song by Stevie Wonder from his late seventies album Journey through the Secret Life of plants which was also the soundtrack to the documentary 'The Secret Life of plants' directed by Walon Green and based on the book by the same name ...

Here are the lyrics...

"The Secret Life Of Plants"

I can't conceive the nucleus of all
Begins inside a tiny seed
And what we think as insignificant
Provides the purest air we breathe

But who am I to doubt or question the inevitable being
For these are but a few discoveries
We find inside the Secret Life of Plants

A species smaller than the eye can see
Or larger than most living things
And yet we take from it without consent
Our shelter, food, habiliment

But who am I to doubt or question the inevitable being
For these are but a few discoveries
We find inside the Secret Life of Plants

But far too many give them in return
A stomp, cut, drown, or burn
As is they're nothing
But if you ask yourself where would you be
Without them you will find you would not

And some believe antennas are their leaves
That spans beyond our galaxy
They've been, they are and probably will be
Who are the mediocrity

But who am I to doubt or question the inevitable being
For these are but a few discoveries
We find inside the Secret Life of Plants
For these are but a few discoveries
We find inside the Secret Life of Plants

I must say, I'm impressed. I rarely come across a blog that is both educational and interesting, and Your idea is brilliant; the issue is one that far too few people are intelligently discussing. I'm glad we found this while searching for information on the subject.A Definite Guide for Having an Affordable Ski Holiday
