Wildflowers Lyrics by Chris Miller (Composer), Nathan Tysen, Gavin Creel, Karen Olivo

Fugitive Songs: A Song Cycle (Studio Cast Recording)

2012

[Karen]
It was a mistake, looking up
I should've kept on reading
A mistake by chapter one
To let my guard down, to begin
It was a mistake to let him in
Now he's never getting out
[Gavin]
It was a mistake to open up
I should've kept my mouth shut
Should've made my great escape
When she walked in the room
It was a mistake to let her bloom
Now I'll never look away
She's surprises like wild, wildflowers on the side of the road
She's surprises like wild, wildflowers on the side of the road
Does she know?
Does she know?
She grows where she's not supposed to grow
[Both]
Here's the type of town for taking root
Where getting by's a war cry
[Karen (Gavin)]
Settle down and reconcile (settle down and reconcile)
[Both]
That your decision's aren't your own
You present a life
I've never known
Now tell me how can I stay
You surprise me like wild, wildflowers on the side of the road
Purple and yellow, wild, wildflowers on the side of the road
[Karen (Gavin)]
Do you know? (Do you know?)
Do you know? (Do you know?)
[Both]
You grow where you're not supposed to grow
[Karen (Gavin)]
Now (now)
You're never getting out (I'll never look away)
Tell me how (how)
[Both]
Can I stay
You surprise me like wild, wildflowers
