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,
cnd 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,
cnd 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
