LYRICS
Fluttering pink and white petals
Creates a blanket as it settles
Will the mountains and canyons shake
Will children of the sun awake?
Children of the sun
Blossoms in the wind
When the day is done
Where have you been
Now that you’re living in castles
You can’t cope with any hassles
The love child’s gone wild?
Turned to milk-toast… lame and mild
Children of the sun
Blossoms in the wind
When the day is done
Where have you been
ABOUT THE SONG

This is a song about bands from the 60’s that sang about love and flower children. Then, they got older and richer. They turned into hypocrites living in castles. In the Led Zeppelin song “Going To California”, they sing “The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake… as the children of the sun began to awake.”
