Wildflower

She faced the hardest times you could imagine

And many times her eyes fought back the tears, Lord

And when her youthful world was about to fall

Time her slender shoulders for the weight of all her fears

And the sorrow no one hears

Still rings in midnight silence in her ears

So let her cry 'cause she's a lady

And let her dream 'cause she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

'Cause she's a free and gentle flower growing wild

And if by chance I should hold her

Let me hold her for a time

And if I'll have just one possession

Then I would pick her from the garden to be mine

Be careful how you touch her 'cause she'll awaken

And sleep's the only freedom that she knows, Lord

And when you walk into her house you won't believe

The way she's always been

For the dead she never rose

And the sorrow lives to those

And only she can hear it and so she goes

So let her cry 'cause she's a lady

And let her dream 'cause she's my child

Let the rain fall down upon her

'Cause she's a free and gentle flower growing wild

So let her cry 'cause she's a lady

And let her dream 'cause she's my child

Let the rain fall down upon her

'Cause she's a free and gentle flower growing wild

She's my flower growing wild

She's my flower growing wild

Yes, she's my flower, my wild flower

Yes, she is my flower, my wild flower

Yes, she's my flower growing wild

Yes, she's my flower growing wild

Yes, she is my flower, my wild flower
