Wildflower Lyrics

She lives her life like a wildflower
Growing in the rocks or in the sand
She takes her time like a wildflower
You can cut her down but she'll grow back again

And since she went away
I been pining for her everyday
If you could see her smile
You'd understand exactly what I'm talkin' about

She lives her life like a wildflower
I can hardly wait until I see her face again

She don't like walls, she needs wide spaces
Earth, sea and sky is the only home she demands
A big leaf tree is her umbrella
River by the ocean is where she takes her bath

Don't want to let her go
Because I love her I won't ask her to stay
You know she promised me
She'd be coming round to see me one of these ole days

She needs the clouds and the sea
She needs the rain and the sand
You take one look at that woman
I know that you'll understand
She's a natural beauty
You can't pin her down
She got a trick up her sleeve
She's got to move around
She'll be out walking for days
She'll take you by your hand
She's a mystical miracle
And I can hardly wait until I see her face again

(Dedicated to all the wildflowers I have known)
