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 the song that no one hears
 Still rings in midnight silence
 In her ears
 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
 Growing wild
 And if by chance that I
 Should hold her
 Let me hold her
 For a time
 And if allowed but one possession
 I will pick her from the garden
 To be mine
 ♪
 Be careful how you touch her
 For she'll awaken
 For sleep's the only freedom
 That she knows
 And when you look into her eyes
 You won't believe
 The way she's always payin'
 For a debt she never owes
 And the silent wind still blows
 That only she can hear
 And so she goes
 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
 Growing wild
