Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Don't Kill It Carol lyrics

seen. One bud only just started to show and the leaves are the

lightest green. It's had it's share of the rain, it needs some feeling

to light it's firey flame again, but one cruel lie and it could die.

(chorus)

Don't Kill It Carol-oh Carol, oh, won't you let this flower grow, Don't

Kill It Carol.

This wild rose that I hold in my hand it could grow to be so strong,

born one night in the calm of the storm it was made for a rock and roll

song. It's only just seen the light, it could so easily fall back to

the gentle night, but one cruel lie and it could die.

(repeat chorus)

It's lookin for a place to live outside all space and time, where

there's no need for it to fade. There's a secret garden that I think we

can find, lot's of sunshine there, a touch of shade.

This wild rose that I hold in my hand it's the strangest thing I've

seen, one bud only just started to show and the leaves are the lightest

green. It's had it's share of the rain, it needs some feeling to light

it's firey flame again, but one cruel lie and it could die.

(repeat chorus)

(Mike Heron
