Peri Rae - Wildflower

He came to me in early spring
And in a season taught me everything
21 years wiser than the teenage love I'd seen
Maybe that was why he called me little green
Like rising light bleeds through a broken blind
He helped me find my way with golden lines
I recognised his language
And though it seemed foreign
His words stayed with me
Right through the autumn
And beyond
And beyond
He drowned out all the voices in the crowd
By speaking words of wisdom
He silenced every doubt
And the wild self inside of me
Was given time and space to breathe
He told me "be a wildflower
Grow amongst the roses and thorns
Be brave my love
Cause we're not here for long
And you can't live a life that you don't love
Yeah you can't live a life that you don't love"
He left my bed in late July
He said you don't have to answer
Until you've questioned why
It's crazy how somebody else
Can really help you find yourself
He told me "be a wildflower
Grow amongst the roses and thorns
Be brave my love
Cause we're not here for long
And you can't live a life that you don't love
Yeah you can't live a life that you don't love"
He came to me in early spring
And in a season taught me everything
