Wildflowers - Alternate Take 1986

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
 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 I'd go
 When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
 Wildflowers don't care where they grow
 Just a wild rambling rose, seeking mysteries 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
 Wildflowers don't care where they grow
 Wildflowers don't care where they grow
