Harris, Emmylou - Wildflowers Lyrics






The hills were alive with wildflowers
And I was as wild, even wilder than they
For at least I could run, they just died in the sun
And I refused to just wither in place

Just a wild mountain rose, needing freedom to grow
So I ran fearing not where I'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

And the flowers I knew in the fields where I grew
Were content to be lost in the crowd
They were common and close, I had no room for growth
I wanted so much to branch out

I uprooted myself from home ground and left
Took my dreams and I took to the road
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

I grew up fast and wild and I never felt right
In a garden so different from me
I just never belonged, I just longed to be gone
So the garden, one day, set me free

Hitched a ride with the wind and since he was my friend
I just let him decide where we'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

    Just doesn't get much better than these three ladies singing some of the great country songs. For me, this is real country music not the country music of today which is merely rock music with a fiddle thrown in.

  44. A.... H....

    Lovely song, lovely voices, heavenly harmonies. However, I find it inconceivable that the maker of this photo montage could spend so much time putting this together and yet could be so careless as to mis-spell Linda Ronstadt's name on the very first page.

    You're right. I interviewed Linda on my radio show in 1975-- asked her about upcoming projects and she alluded to getting together with "a couple girfriends of mine" as she put it to record but she wouldn't say who they were. 12 years later...oh my.
