Wildflower

She wakes up when I sleep
To talk to ghosts like in the movies
If you don’t follow what I mean
I sure don’t mean to be confusing
They say when she laughs she wants to cry
She’ll draw a crowd then try to hide
Don’t know if it’s her or just my mind I’m losing
Nobody knows a wildflower still grows
By the side of the road
And she don’t need to need like the roses
Wildflower
That girl’s sure put a spell on me Yeah, her voodoos hidden right behind her pocket
If she’s fire, I’m gasoline
Yeah, we fight a lot but neither wants to stop it Well, she’ll tell you she’s an only child until you meet her brothers
Swear she’s never met the man she couldn’t make into a lover
Nobody knows a wildflower still grows
By the side of the road
And she don’t need to need like the roses
She’s at home with the weeds
And just as free as the night breeze
She’s got the cool of a shade tree
She’s growin’on me and I can’t live with out her
Yesterday’s a memory
Tomorrow’s accessory
That’s her favorite quote about regret
Well, she’ll tell you about her pedigree
With a sailor’s mouth he’d have left at sea and it ain’t over yet
Nobody knows
That’s right
She wakes up when I sleep
To talk to ghosts like in the movies
