Lisa Brokop - Wildflower lyrics

I wanna live like a wildflower Find my place in the golden sun Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee Watchin' that river run Where's that girl who ran barefoot Chasin' the wind and the bu*terflies? Tellin' her secrets to the calico cat: That cat never heard no lies Grandma's apron full of blackberries Sayin': "Get your bucket and a-come home child "Wash your hands it's time for supper "Clean your face but don't touch that smile." Kiss on the cheek and off to bed: The nightlight's on and the Bible's read Pray, the Lord, my soul to keep: Lord, keep my spirit free I wanna live like a wildflower Find my place in the golden sun Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee Watchin' that river run Run, run, river run Watchin' that river run Instrumental break Where's that girl who laid in the daisies Lookin' at the faces up in the clouds? Dreamin' of the boy she's gonna marry Where's that boy right now? Come on, honey, go with me To the boy and the girl we used to be I pray, the Lord, our souls to keep: Lord, keep our spirits free We're gonna live like wildflowers: Nature's daughter, nature's son Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee Watchin' that river run Run, run, river run Until this life on Earth is done Then up in Heaven everyone We're gonna live like wildflowers Find our place in the golden sun Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee Watchin' that river run And the angels say: "Run, run, river run," Dancin' at the feet of the Father's son All God's children having so much fun Watchin' that river run I'm gonna live like a wildflower We're gonna live like wildflowers We're all gonna live like wildflowers Watchin' that river run
