A flake of snow within a storm A new way waiting to be born In a world with need of change A touch of love in fear of hate A rushing wind that's asked to wait For the promises of rain A pearl of wisdom entrapped by poverty
She gives love with purity Filling minds with hopeful schemes To build worlds enhanced by peace Draped in sparkling morning dew She expresses life anew From the earth beneath her feet She is a flower that grows In love ability She's femininity
Black Orchid, Black Orchid Why did they make you begin When they know in time you'll find your truth before your cycle ends Black Orchid, Black Orchid Why are you crying their fears When the true reflection of you that they see Is love besieged by years
She has touched the farthest star Her beauty speaks of what we are And her freedom makes us free Her now is in eternity Infinite to all that see And her dreams have been achieved Now there is a sound of laughter Nature signs out her name For the world to know her fame
Black Orchid, Black Orchid Why did they criticize When they knew your love could cast its spell and consecrate their eyes Black Orchid, Black Orchid Why do you linger in space When you know in every heart that beats You hold a special place When you know in every heart that beats You hold a special place
