When I speak to the flowers in my backyard
When I speak to the flowers in my backyard
When I speak to the flowers in my backyard
They tell me to leave you, leave you behind
They tell my to leave you, just get you out of my mind.
They tell me to leave you, leave you behind
Ow, forget all the good times, that are making me blind.
I know you run around and you'll never settle down
And I should quit while I'm still on top
But when you hold me baby in your lovin' arms
I could love you forever baby, but
When I speak to the flowers in my backyard
When I speak to the flowers in my backyard
When I speak to the flowers in my backyard
They tell me to leave you, leave you behind
They tell my to leave you, just get you out of my mind.
They tell me to leave you, just leave you behind
Ow, forget all the good times, that are making me blind.

Cat Stevens, pseudonimo di Steven Demetre Georgiou, è un cantautore britannico nato a Londra il 21 luglio 1948. Attivo dal fine degli anni '60 fino al 1978, ha poi abbracciato l'Islam e cambiato nome in Yusuf Islam, continuando la sua carriera musicale con un approccio più spirituale. Stevens è noto per le sue melodie folk-rock malinconiche e introspettive, spesso accompagnate da testi poetici che esplorano temi di amore, perdita, fede e spiritualità. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "Wild World", "Father and Son" e "Peace Train". L'album "Tea for the Tillerman" (1970) è considerato un classico del folk-rock britannico. Dopo il suo periodo di conversione, Yusuf Islam ha continuato a pubblicare musica con testi più religiosi, ma ha sempre mantenuto una sensibilità musicale raffinata e poetica.
