I wanted to hold her hand She was too embarrassed I didn't like the boys I didn't like most men They did all the bad things And she could outrun all of them She outran all of them
So free So fast So beautiful So free So fast So beautiful
I'm wild I'm a wildflower I'm wild I'm a wildflower
Blossoming gently I showed her where I showed her slow I led her to the rock ledge On a slab of granite knowledge Too young to know the sacrilege
We laid down We laid down We laid down We laid down We laid down We laid down
I'm wild I'm a wildflower I'm wild I'm a wildflower
There were plenty of men to admire Fools came and went The gentlemen My great loves
Rested in my arms I never found a home with my Carmen Though I longed And I marched Make up your fucking mind, they barked
Feeling counterfeit Never fitting in Between two worlds Between two generations They're so young
So fluid My secrets now, they just feel They just feel foolish Release me This stoic oak tree Is coming down Down Down
I'm wild I'm a wildflower I'm wild I'm a wildflower I'm wild I'm a wildflower I'm wild I'm a wildflower
