Dolly Parton - Wildflowers

The hills were alive with wild flowers 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-o-o
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 commonly close, I had no room to grow
And I wanted so much to branch out

So I uprooted myself, from my home ground and left
Took my dreams and I took to the road-o-oad
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

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

Just a wild ramblin' rose, seeking mysteries untold
No regrets for the path that I chose-o-ose
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow

Wildflowers don't care where they grow

My uncle used to play this song back in the days, i used to like it even though i couldn't fully comprehend what it meant. And now that i can, it feels so good and reminds me of my late uncle.
