Wildflower Run

Letra

[Verse 1] The hillside kept a secret underneath the morning frost A red bloom bent beside me, counting everything it lost I learned the creek by running, learned the wind by turning free No fence could make a promise that was big enough for me [Pre-Chorus] I left the rows behind me With dirt beneath my shoes The road was never certain But certainty could lose [Chorus] I’ll take the open weather I’ll take the rising ground A heart that keeps on reaching Can’t be buried underground Let the seasons try to change me Let the hard rain pull me through I was made to find my growing Where the wide world leaves me room [Verse 2] The garden held its blossoms in a neat and careful line Each petal had a place there, each stem was trained to shine But I had roots like rivers, never faithful to one shore And every door they closed on me made me want the road once more [Pre-Chorus] I carried little sunlight Inside a weathered coat And followed distant ridges By every path they wrote [Chorus] I’ll take the open weather I’ll take the rising ground A heart that keeps on reaching Can’t be buried underground Let the seasons try to change me Let the hard rain pull me through I was made to find my growing Where the wide world leaves me room [Bridge] If I fall, I’ll feed the soil If I bend, I’ll face the rain Every scar becomes a doorway Every loss can start again [Final Chorus] I’ll take the open weather I’ll take the rising ground A heart that keeps on reaching Will make its own way out Let the seasons try to change me Let the hard rain pull me through I was made to find my growing Where the wide world leaves me room [Outro] Where the wide world leaves me room That’s where I’ll bloom
