Lyrics

I have lived as a garden rose
It is the only life i've known
I've felt the touch of tending hands
I get my rain from a watering can

Now from the time I was a seed
I have had everything I need
And I grew strong and I grew tall
Until the day I saw past the garden wall

Now tell me something little wildflower
Can't you make some room for me?
'Cause I will climb out of this garden
And put my feet down in the weeds

I always thought that my life was enough
Till I saw your face so brilliant and so rough
You were shining right back up at the whole sky
Handing out smiles, to travelers passing by

Now tell me something little wildflower
Can't you make some room for me?
'Cause I will climb out of this garden
And put my feet down in the weeds

And if an acorn becomes an oak tree
Caterpillar makes a butterfly
Oh, then tell me one good reason
A rose should not become a weed, by and by

'Cause don't the sunshine lay the brightest
On the shoulders of the wild?
And don't the breeze lay the sweetest
On the face of its own child?

And tell me something, little wildflower
Have you made some room for me?
'Cause I will leave this wall forever
A little wildflower I will be
Hey, a little wildflower I will be
Two little wildflowers we will be
