Man, I can understand how it might be

Kind of hard to love a girl like me

I don't blame you much for wanting to be free

I just wanted you to know

I loved you better than your own kin did

From the very start

It's my own fault for what happens to my heart

You see I've always known you'd go

But you just do what you gotta do

My wild sweet love

Though it may mean I'll never kiss your sweet lips again

Pay that no mind

Just find that dappled dream of yours

Come on back and see me when you can

Well, I know they make you sad

They make you feel so bad

They say you don't treat me like you should

Folks got ways to make you feel no good

I'd guess they've got no way to know

I've had my eyes wide open from the start

And boy, you never lied to me

And the part of you they'll never see

Is the part you've shown to me

So you just do what you gotta do

My wild sweet love

Though it may mean I'll never kiss those sweet lips again

Pay that no mind

Just find that dappled dream of yours

Come on back and see me

Come on back and see me when you can
