Wildflower

She's faced the hardest times you can 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 a sorrow no one hears

Still rings in midnight silence

in her ears.

 

And if by chance that I should hold her

Let me hold her for a time

But it 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 paying for a debt she never owes

And a silent wind still blows that only she can hear

And so she goes
