Wild Flower

Walked thru the meadow on a moonlight night

To get a breath of country air

Not a star shone but the moon bright

The world seemed lovely everywhere

 

Wild flower, wild flower

Wild flower, wild flower

 

But then I noticed growing all around me

Wild flowers glowing with the dew

I turned sad cus they reminded me

Of the wildness in you

 

Outside they’re lovely, but then nature says

They cannot grow in just one place

Outside you’re pretty, but I say to you

Girl you’ve got more than one face

 

Wild flower, wild flower

Wild flower, wild flower

 

Wild flowers trap you with there golden glow

They’ll catch you with their hidden charms (wild flower)

All that glitters is not gold I know

Since you took away your arms (wild flower)

 

Wild flower stay away

Your wildness will drive me insane

In one place you’ll never stay

Heaven knows you never will be tamed

 

Wild flower, wild flower
