Mel Bryant & the Mercy Makers - Wildflower

Something down the road didn't happen yet Something you'd forget
Like that night in the shower
You got that tattoo on your lower back
You said you'd regret In a month or an hour

Don't speak too soon
You might lose your breath or your fear of death
Or the way that you went to your mother's house
After you ran out on me while I
Was in the shower

I'm stuck here still
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Your fingers grip the wheel
As you're pullin out your parents driveway
You're staring down the road
Burying your heart in the ash tray
You think it's gonna grow
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway

You got stopped by the cops putting lipstick on
For the junior prom
You looked so pretty he let you off
You always said that it creeped you out
And it let you down
And it made you think less of the law

We can sleep on the floor cause you're scared of heights
And you see yourself turning into your mother
I'll sleep on the floor facing your headlights
On a school night
I'll be outside your front door

I'm stuck here still
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway
Your fingers grip the wheel
As you're pullin out your parents driveway
You're staring down the road
Burying your heart in the ash tray
You think it's gonna grow
Like a wildflower on the side of the highway
