about

This fun song, originally by Dolly Parton, speaks to the wild and wanderer in all of us!

lyrics

The hills were alive with wildflowers
And I was as wild, even wilder than they
For at least I could run, they just died in the sun
And I refused to just wither in place

Just a wild mountain rose, needing freedom to grow
So I ran fearing not where I'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

And the flowers I knew in the fields where I grew
Were content to be lost in the crowd
They were common and close, I had no room for growth
I wanted so much to branch out

I uprooted myself from home ground and left
Took my dreams and I took to the road
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

I grew up fast and wild and I never felt right
In a garden so different from me
I just never belonged, I just longed to be gone
So the garden, one day, set me free

Hitched a ride with the wind and since she was my friend
I just let her decide where we'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

Bicycle Face Seattle, Washington

Bicycle Face is a musical project by Lichen & Evan. We believe that it's important to teach history so that children know that they can change the future! ... more
