I heard a story years ago From my grandmama, rest her soul 'Bout a girl who'd never grow up Never grow old, oh She was wild, she was free Faced the fire fearlessly That's the spirit, that's the ghost inside of me
Baby, I'm not a rose, I'm a wildflower Out of all of them You chose one who'll run free forever Doesn't mean I'm lost, I just like to wander Got that gypsy blood, always chasing thunder
I remember when twenty five Was forever in my mind I wish I could go back in time Oh, I would if I could, but I can't To myself, that life flies by We all live, and we all die Keep the sun and moon and stars, girl, in your eyes
Baby, I'm not a rose, I'm a wildflower Out of all of them you chose one who'll run free forever Doesn't mean I'm lost, I just like to wander Got that gypsy blood, always chasing thunder
All the beauty and the bad Makes me happy, makes me sad 'Cause I know that nothing lasts forever I'll keep runnin', chasing thunder All the beauty and the bad Makes me happy, makes me sad 'Cause I know that nothing lasts forever I'll keep runnin', chasing thunder
Ooh Oh, oh Baby, I'm not a rose, I'm a wildflower So I'm gonna keep on chasing thunder Chasing thunder
