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



Repeat chorus
