Wild Flowers

[Verse 1]

Poor girl, no Ma

Nothing much to speak of but a rough diamond

Sleep now and your angels will come, dear

Poor Matilda

Handcuffed hard to the wheel

And steering wildly

Through loves fields, so blindly

[Pre-Chorus]

Forever only takes its toll on some, oh oh

But, tonight you're sleeping alone

Without him

Tonight you're sleeping alone

Without him

[Chorus]

And everything went up in smoke

Like wildflowers

Wildflowers, dear

[Verse 2]

Poor girl, lonely

Shuffles through the parade

Of a sleepless circus promenade

Hold on, dear

Poor girl, no Ma

Sister steals her a coat

For the windless breezes

Sleep now and Jesus will come, dear

[Pre-Chorus]

Forever only takes its toll on some, oh oh

But, tonight you're sleeping alone

Without him

Tonight you're sleeping alone

Without him

[Chorus]

And everything went up in smoke

Like wildflowers

Wildflowers

Wildflowers

Wildflowers, oh
