About the Artist

The Moody Blues

Lyrics

I Am

Salt water never grew roses

Seems roses can't grow in the sea

A river can fashion a valley

From a thousand sweet drinking streams

I am

I am

I am the son

Yes I am

I am the son

Yes I am the son of love

I am

Burn in the times when eyes could see

What's written in the stars

Freedom was ever

And ever was never far

I am

(I am)
