You belong among the wildflowers You belong in a boat out at sea You sail away, kill off the hours You belong somewhere you feel free Run away, and find you a lover Go away somewhere all bright and new Yeah, I have seen no other Who compares with you You belong among the wildflowers You belong in a boat out at sea You belong with your love on your arm You belong somewhere you feel free Run away, yeah, go find a lover Run away, let your heart be your guide You deserve the deepest of cover You bеlong in that home by and by Yeah, you belong among thе wildflowers You belong, somewhere close to me Far away from your trouble and worry You belong somewhere you feel free Yeah, you belong somewhere you feel free

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 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 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 When a flower grows wild, it can always survive Wildflowers don't care where they grow Just a wild rambling rose seeking misteries untold No regret for the path that I chose When a flower grows wild, it can always survive Wildflowers don't care where they grow Wildflowers don't care where they grow

I can love you baby Like you need me to You'll give up on me I give up on you In the lines and the shadows Where my fear resides I can't go out that door It's so warm inside We can lie like sinners Breathe the air like children And you could lead and I could follow All those times are gone Still I like the quiet Of Duluth in the winter In the sacred bond There's no place like home

There were dreams on a full moon night Big black hole in the middle of the light Painless times, yeah, we were feeling alright We were breaking down the walls Dirty little basements and electric guitars The sound of the river and the pines and the stars Drank a little too much, yeah, we took it too far Well, but most of us survived So much comin' out, there's nothing goin' in With your skirt above your knee and your murderous grin Aw, tell me that you're not leavin' You were standin' there so literal and free Writing pretty poems and ruining me It took a little time, but baby, now I see That the end is always near I was sleepin' on a couch with a shivering dog Practicing my speeches and studyin' the law Nothin' in the cupboard but a hammer and a saw And some nails to drive it home So much comin' out, there's nothing goin' in I could write it down, but that would be a sin And you know how I feel about sinnin' Charlie's on stage and the roof may collapse No one seems too worried 'bout the light in the gaps Of the walls painted yellow and papered with map That remind us it's time to move on Pretty little city built on a hillside Music in the bars and fire in the sky We went to the beach, and it was covered in ice And I used to call it home So much comin' out, there's nothing goin' in I know that you feel like you're never gonna win Aw, but the world won't forgive a winner

With your feet on the air And your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head'll collapse If there's nothing in it And then you'll ask yourself Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water See it swimmin' I was swimmin' in the Caribbean Animals were hiding behind a rock Except the little fish Bumped into me I swear he was trying To talk to me coy koi Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water See it swimmin' With your feet on the air And your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head'll collapse If there's nothing in it And you'll ask yourself Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water See it swimmin' End

See the light come And surround you Getting thin and alone Silent forces When they found you Can you just pick up the phone? Silver light Don't leave me lonely tonight Silver light Not a savior in sight Crumbled and bleeding In the corner And I don't think of you at all Nights are quiet Cool and breezy And I don't think of you at all Silver light Don't leave me lonely tonight Silver light Empty streets and traffic lights Enter softly Touching nothing Slip away without a sound They were the good days Light and soaring Days beneath the pitted ground Silver light Don't leave me lonely tonight Silver light Broken down and running light

Shadows are falling and I'm running out of breath Keep me in your heart for awhile If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less Keep me in your heart for awhile When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun Keep me in your heart for awhile There's a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done Keep me in your heart for awhile Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Keep me in your heart for awhile Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Keep me in your heart for awhile Sometimes when you're doing simple things Around the house Maybe you'll think of me and smile You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on Your blouse Keep me in your heart for awhile Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams Touch me as I fall into view When the winter comes keep the fires lit And I will be right next to you Engine driver's headed north to Pleasant Stream Keep me in your heart for awhile These wheels keep turning but they're running out Of steam Keep me in your heart for awhile Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Keep me in your heart for awhile Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Keep me in your heart for awhile Keep me in your heart for awhile
