flower in the sun in album live at winterland 68

Janis Joplin

Now please don t you think baby that I m on the road to crime, yeah.
You loved me, too,
So how come you just sit there and laugh
And laugh and laugh and laugh ?
Things just happen this way
Not for very long
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no.
Our love affair said it s just history.

And I attempted to love you in my own way,
I think that you know I did.
But to have you here, to see you living,
Oh so near to me, yeah.
Oh but you re long distance and so it s still
And so often people are glad to be old, but now now,
Our love affair, yes it s just history, yes it is.

Once in a green time a flower
Oh, fell in love with the sun.
Their passion lasted for an hour
And then she wilted, come on, lover!

Once in a green time a flower

Did I see you looking up at the sky ? Up high, yeah.
You wonder if there is, whoa, another means
Now how can it be, how can it be ?
Well, I said and I asked you, why all this ?
I just got to know now now now now now now
Our love affair, yes it s just a history.
But baby, baby, I said it s over, child,
I can t stand it any long-long-longer,
You left me too lonely now.

It s over baby,
Where were you when I wanted you,
I needed you right by my side ?
I said-a, baby, baby, don t you hear me crying,
Oh baby, oh baby, don t you feel me moving ?
I know I hurt you, you hurt me too, you know,
Oh baby, oh baby, don t you know I tried,
