COWSILLS..THE RAIN,THE PARK, & OTHER THINGS 1967

I saw her sitting in the rain
Raindrops falling on her
She didn't seem to care
She sat there and smiled at me

Then I knew (I knew... I knew... I knew... I knew)
She could make me happy (happy... happy)
(She could make me very happy)
Flowers in her hair (in her hair)
Flowers everywhere (everywhere)

(I love the flower girl)
Oh I don't know just why; she simply caught my eye
(I love the flower girl)
She seemed so sweet and kind; she crept into my mind
(To my mind... to my mind)

I knew I had to say hello (hello... hello)
She smiled up at me
And she took my hand and we walked through the park alone

And I knew (I knew... I knew... I knew... I knew)
She had made me happy (happy... happy)
(She had made me very happy)
Flowers in her hair (in her hair)
Flowers everywhere (everywhere)

(I love the flower girl)
Oh I don't know just why; she simply caught my eye
(I love the flower girl)
She seemed so sweet and kind; she crept into my mind
(To my mind ... to my mind)

Suddenly, the sun broke through
(See the sun)
I turned around she was gone
(Where did she go)
And all I had left was one little flower in my hand

But I knew (I knew... I knew... I knew... I knew)
She had made me happy (happy... happy)
(She had made me very happy)
Flowers in her hair (in her hair)
Flowers everywhere (everywhere)

(I love the flower girl)
Was she reality or just a dream to me
(I love the flower girl)
Her love showed me the way to find a sunny day
(Sunny day... sunny day... sunny day)

(I love the flower girl)
Was she reality or just a dream to me

I'm 60 folks. I was blessed to live it. The Cowsills, Scott McKensie, Mama's Pappa's, Beach Boys. The 60's were more than Cream, Hendrix and Jim Morrison. That generation was rich with musical variety. I love it all.

[Winky395]

yes the 60's are gone

but live on in the memories

of those of us that were there...

[sjtom57]

So many memories, both happy and sad. This song brings them all back.

@frank02111 your sharing that does remind me of being young (I was 7 in 69) and how I loved all this music, your mom has good taste! i HAD SO MANY OF THESE 45'S

[frank02111]

I was 9 in 1969. This was an album my mom bought for my birthday Nov.17,1969. I will cherish this tune forever .It taught me love and the birds and the bees.!!!

@raynageotte I'm sorry, but you're way overthinking this song. Sometimes a flower is just a flower. If anything, the song is just about a nice daydream. As far as Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds goes, I thought that rumor about LSD had died out a long time ago.

[kaylawayla23]

You're pretty.
