Lyrics Wildflower - The O'Jays

Wildflower

Oh, yeah
What a song, what a song to sing
And I’m singin' my song, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sing a song, yeah, yeah, yeah
She faced the hardest times you would imagine
And many times her eyes fought back the tears, yeah, yeah
And when her youthful world was about to fall in
Each time her slender shoulders
Bore the weight of all her fears and a sorrow no one hear
Still rings in midnight silence in her ear
Let her cry for she’s a lady
Let her dream, she’s a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She’s a free and gentle flower growin' wild
And if by chance I should hold her, hold her
Let me, let me hold her for a little while
And if I had but one possession, possession
I would take her from the garden to be mine, oh, yeah, yeah
Be careful how you touch her for she night awaken
And sleep is the only freedom that the little girl knows
And when you walk into your eyes, you won’t believe
The way she’s always payin'
For a debt she never, never owed
And the silent wind still blows
But only she can hear, and so she goes
Let her cry, oh, for she’s a lady
Let her dream, she is a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She’s a free and gentle flower growin' wild
Let her cry, cry for she’s a lady
Let her dream and dream and dream and dream, she’s a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She’s a free and gentle flower growin' wild
She’s, she’s, she’s a free and gentle flower, yeah, yeah
I’ma tell the world about my wildflower, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Growin', growin', growin', yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah
Growin', growin', growin', yeah, growin' wild
She’s a flower growin', growin' wild
She’s a flower growin', growin' wild
She’s a flower growin', growin' wild
She’s a flower growin' wild
Wild, wild, la-la, growin' wild
Wild, wild, la-la, growin' wild
Wild, wild, la-la, growin' wild
Wild, wild, la-la, growin' wild
