Wildflower

quiet hours
you have always been my
wildflower
showing up wherever
beauty's lost its way
your heart must break

i was free
until I heard the song
you sang me to me
pulling me away
from everything i knew
to be with you

and everything I know
just fades away
and every time you low
it hurts me so
i don't know why
when i know we're free
we're free to fly

here we are
burning faster than the
closest star
falling back
down to the earth
i love you so
it sometimes hurts

closer still
you will find me standing
on the hill
waiting for you with
my arms stretched open wide
now, come inside

and everything i know
just fades away
and every time you low
it hurts me so
i don't know why
when i know we're free
we're free to fly

and everything I know
just fades away
and when a wildflower grows
it picks its space
and that's the way it is
when nature plays
its lovely hand
we'll understand
everything

every thing

everything
