|
I'm a wildflower by the highway, |
|
Up against the rain |
|
I'm an old man, growing tired, |
|
Getting used to the pain, |
|
I'm a wildflower in a garden, |
|
Tended everyday, |
|
I'm an old dog, hard to love, |
|
And even harder to change. |
|
But it's no time to be slowing down, |
|
It's no time to be turning 'round, |
|
You could blow a hole right through this town |
|
If I don't ever let you down, |
|
I'm a wildflower by the streetlight |
|
Where the night begins, |
|
I'm an old house, barely breathing, |
|
As the walls fall in. |
|
But it's no time to be slowing down, |
|
It's no time to be turning 'round, |
|
You could blow a hole right through this town |
|
If I don't ever let you down, |
|
I'm a wildflower, and |
|
I'm an old man. |
|
There's so much in between |
|
And it's no time to be standing byit's no time to be asking why |
|
You could blow a hole right through this town |
|
If I don't let you down, |
