Walked through the meadow on a moonlight night
To get a breath of country air
Not a star shone but the moon bright
The world seemed lovely everywhere

Wild flower, wild flower
Wild flower, wild flower

But then I noticed growing all around me
Wild flowers glowing with the dew
I turned sad 'cause they reminded me
Of the wildness in you

Outside they're lovely, but then nature says
They cannot grow in just one place
Outside you're pretty, but I say to you
Girl you've got more than one face

Wild flower, wild flower
Wild flower, wild flower

Wild flowers trap you with there golden glow
They'll catch you with their hidden charms (wild flower)
All that glitters is not gold I know
Since you took away your arms (wild flower)
Wild flower stay away
Your wildness will drive me insane
In one place you'll never stay
Heaven knows you never will be tamed

Wild flower, wild flower
