Emmylou Harris - Wildflowers lyrics
Your rating:
The hills were alive with wildflowers and I Was as wild even wilder than they For at least I could run they just died in the sun And I refused to just wither in place Just a wild mountain rose needing freedom to grow So I ran fearing not where I'd go When a flower grows wild it can always survive Wildflowers don't care where they grow And the flowers I knew in the fields where I grew Were content to be lost in the crowd They were common and close I had no room for growth And I wanted so much to branch out So I uprooted myself from my home ground and left Took my dreams and I took to the road When a flower grows wild it can always survive Wildflowers don't care where they grow [ accoustic guitar ] I grew up fast and wild and I never felt right In a garden so different from me I just never belonged I just longed to be gone So the garden one day set me free I hitched a ride with the wind and since he was my friend I just let him decide where we'd go When a flower grows wild it can always survive Wildflowers don't care where they grow Just a wild rambling rose seeking mist'ries untold No regret for the path that I chose When a flower grows wild it can always survive Wildflowers don't care where they grow Mhm hm hm mhm... Mhm hm hm mhm... Wildflowers don't care where they grow
