It's All in the Nature of Things

The sea offers to boys and girls
Some gifts that it hides in the sand
Some driftwood, some shells and some pearls
The sea and the wind, hand in hand
The wind, the wind
And the marvelous treasures it brings!
It’s all in the nature of things
The cat is always on the chase
Hunting for prey on its own
The dog seeks forever the place
Where others have buried their bones
The bones, the bones
Feeding the flowers that grow in the spring
It’s all in the nature of things
In the heart of every old man
A little boy plays a new game
The apple will fall from his hand
And give the apple tree its name
Its name, its name
Planting the seed of the song that he sings
It’s all in the nature of things
