[Verse 1]
Once as I lay cryin' on the ground
She came up to me and let her hair fall down
All over me

[Pre-Chorus]
And she said the tenderest thing
I've ever heard a woman say

[Chorus]
She's a flower child, summer's daughter
(She's a summer's daughter)
(Love is sweet) She's sweet as water
She's a flower child, she's summer's daughter
And I love her

[Verse 2]
An ant is never crushed beneath her feet
And I've seen sparrows brush against her cheek
'Cause she's so sweet

[Pre-Chorus]
And she does the tenderest thing
I've ever seen a woman do

[Chorus]
She's a flower child, summer's daughter
(She's a summer's daughter)
(Love is sweet) She's sweet as water
She's a flower child, she's summer's daughter
Oh, I love her
[Outro]
Flower child, summer's daughter (I love her)
Flower child, she's summer's daughter
Flower child, summer's daughter
(Whoa, I'll tell you right now, right now, I'll tell you I love her)
Flower child, she's summer's daughter (Mmm-hmm)
Flower child, summer's daughter
Flower child, she's summer's daughter
(Oh, you know, you know right now I love her, yes, I do, yeah)
Flower child, summer's daughter
Flower child, she's summer's daughter
