Lyrics

Pan is my name
I live outside the door
I have to keep the score of things around you

Fire and air,
Earth, water I prepare
I am the piper at the gates of dawning

It's not magic it's not madness
Just the elements I style
And I guarantee faithfully I will never go

Until all is said and done
In a twinkling I'll be gone
Well excuse me I have so much more to do

Fancy I feel,
A childlike tap I'll steal
Look twice my friend it's not the wind at all

You'll never see,
What you refuse to be
The power in the seeing is believing.

It's not magic it's not madness
Just the elements I style
And I guarantee faithfully I will never go
Until all is said and done
In a twinkling I'll be gone
Well excuse me I have so much more to do

It's not magic it's not madness
Just the elements I style
And I guarantee faithfully I will never go
Until all is said and done
In a twinkling I'll be gone
Well excuse me I have so much more to do

(Background)
Flower Power, Power Flower, Flower Power, Power of Love
Power Flower, Flower Power, Power Flower, Flower of Love

(repeat)
He's a power flower yeah, oh
Protecting all the flowers, yeah, oh
He's a flower's power, yeah
Through earth, wind, fire, showers, yeah, oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh

He's a power flower yeah, oh
Protecting all the flowers, yeah, oh.

The essence of a genius

The essence of a genius
There are albums that are essentially pure in its simplicity; possess the charm crystalline in the melodies, and overflow naturalness for his instrumentation. Reflect the greatness of a man who is synonymous of magic. A magic that is seen with the intensity of lightning, paradoxically transporting you to the quiet life of your soul. This way it can design a conceptual work -in part instrumental- of Stevie Wonder in the '70's to nature.

Journey through the secret life of plants, was an explosion of creativity that sought to capture musically the love for life whatever is form and state, bringing light in the form of music to the documentary "The Secret Life of Plants".

He is also a rough diamond structured for melodies purity single, which over the years is keeping alive the essence. A gift to the sensitivity unadorned melodies through flowing unchecked from the mind of a man with a talent unique. A delicate touch that permeates the senses ... it's simply the essence of a genius, Stevie Wonder in his natural state.
