Wildflower

She's faced the hardest times you could imagine

And many times her eyes fought back the tears

And when her youthful world was about to fall in

Each time her slender shoulders

Bore the weight of all her fears

And the sorrow no one hears

Still rings in midnight silence

In her ears

Chorus:

Let her cry for she's a lady

Let her dream for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower

Growin' wild

And if by chance I should hold her

Let me hold her for a time

But if allowed just one possession

I would pick her from the garden to be mine

Be careful how you touch her

For she'll awaken

And sleep's the only freedom that she knows

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

The way she's always payin'

For a debt she never owes

And a silent wind still blows

That only she can hear

So she goes

(Chorus)
