Diane Reeves - Wild Rose lyrics

Listen To the wild rose in bloom In her tune Strength and beauty Grow with the days unfolding Each layer of her perfume I want to move that free and full Like the wild rose, Like the wild rose I'd been growing happy In the gardens 'Neath the open sun Each of my finest roses Trimmed and bunched into a vase Lovers and florists Flocked to buy and sell Till petals started falling From my pretty little face _____ ____ ___ my breath Big time cultivators came to counsel me With bouquets and tips About how successful plots Need some controls if they're to grow Promising next year If I pruned my branches and locked my hips I'd have more roses and more hands To help me reap and sow While they were talking 'round me A wild breeze wafted by And wrapped its song around me Before I crossed their dotted line I listened To the wild rose in bloom In her tune strength and beauty Opened my heart unfolding Each layer of her perfume And I knew I could bloom and move Like the wild rose A wild will to grow took me over And out grew my roots and seed The florists scattered Songs grew out of my thorns and leaves Never knew they mattered-- They matter To grow my Self in full And show out loud That more than pretty roses, Of me I'm proud To be that free and full Like the wild rose In my tune Strength and beauty Growing for days unfolding I've been growing happy In my fullness, stretching in the sun Each of my roses blooming out And singing their own song Now people pa**ing through the gardens Like to stop and hear Some even open up and start to sing along For every rose still longing For a new breeze to come by Listen for the wild rose As she sings her song on high Just listen to the wild rose in bloom In her tune strength and beauty Grow with the days unfolding Each layer of her perfume I want to bloom that free and full Call me wild rose Call me Wild Rose
