I wish I could have been there on the high-way
When the people came from miles around to see
The children of the flowers come together
I wish I could have been there in the sunshine
With the sound of lovely laughter in the air
And the music makers first began to play
To hear them play
And I wish I could have been there in the rain
When the clouds were silver castles in the sky
And I wish I could have heard the people sing
As the rhythm and the words came floating by
I wish I could have been there in the star - light
When the countryside was quiet once again
And the music and the makers
The poets and the singers
And the children of the flowers
Had all gone
