Wild Flowers Lyrics - Gold - Ryan Adams

Poor girl, no ma 

nothing much to speak of 

but a rough diamond 

sleep now and your angels will come, dear 

poor matilda 

handcuffed to the wheel 

and steering wildly 

through love's 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 serenade 

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 it's 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 wild flowers 

wildflowers, dear
