"Wild Flowers"

Poor girl, no Ma
Nothing much to speak of but a rough diamond
Sleep now and your angels will come, dear

Poor Matilda,
Handcuffed hard to the wheel
And steering wildly
Through loves fields, so blindly

Forever only takes its toll on some
But, tonight you're sleeping alone
Without him
Tonight you're sleeping alone
Without him
And everything went up in smoke
Like wildflowers
Wildflowers, dear

Poor girl, lonely
Shuffles through the parade
Of a sleepless circus promenade
Hold on, dear

Poor girl, no Ma
Sister steals her a coat
For the windless breezes
Sleep now and Jesus will come, dear

Forever only takes its toll on some
But, tonight you're sleeping alone
Without him
Tonight you're sleeping alone
Without him
And everything went up in smoke
Like wildflowers
Wildflowers, dear
