Wildflower Wildfire

Here's the deal 'Cause I know you wanna talk about it Here's the deal I promise you, like, a million tomorrows Here's the deal What I can promise is I'll lie down Like a bed of wildflowers And I'll always make the sheets Smell like gardenias wild at your feet And I nourish you hazily Baby, I, I, I, I've been runnin' on stardust Alone for so long I wouldn't know what hot fire was Hot fire, hot weather, hot coffee I'm better with you It's strange, but it's true, darling Not to turn into a wildfire To light up your night With only my smile and nothing that burns Baby, I'll be like a wildflower I live on sheer willpower I'll do my best never to turn into something That burns, burns, burns Like the others, baby, burns, burns, burns Here's the deal 'Cause I know you wanna talk about it Here's the deal You say there's gaps to fill in, so here Here's the deal My father never stepped in when his wife would rage at me So I ended up awkward but sweet Later then hospitals, and still on my feet Comfortably numb, but with lithium came poetry And baby, I, I've been running on star drip IV's for so long I wouldn't know how cruel the world was Hot fire, hot weather, hot coffee, I'm better So I turn, but I learn (It from you, babe) Not to turn into a wildfire To light up your night With only my smile and nothing that hurts Baby, I run like a wildflower I live on sheer willpower I promise that nothing will burn you Nothing will burn, burn, burn Like the others, baby, burns, burns, burns Burn, burn, burn (Like the others, baby) Like the others, baby, burns, burns, burns It's you from whom I learn, learn, learn It's you from whom I learn, learn, learn
