Every night I fly to the sky and cry
Let it rain down on everyone below
And as the tears hit her head
She says, "I'm better off dead"
But instead she falls into a bar
And she orders a drink
Until her breath starts to stink
And she calls up an old friend
Just to see what they think
And they say, "Put down the phone
Oh, just get yourself home
Leave it alone, dear"
She says, "I get too scared
And I’ll accept any death
I just care and that's my problem"
[Chorus]
And I want to be clean
No, I don't want to be mean
Or break anybody’s heart
[Verse 2]
Every flower, oh, has the power
To change a life of a man or a woman with its color
And every plant, mmm, just wants to dance
In the warm breeze you can hear it say "please"
And every car or machine has a motor
And you really turned mine on
And you turned my, my motor over
And everybody, oh my god, in this town
Thinks it's real [?] funny
Or that I'm still right
And, oh, my wild flower
Don't you know you hold the power?
And you put our lives in danger
Just to think one day we were just strangers
Oh, how I've ruined you
And, oh, how you've ruined me too
[Chorus]
And I want to be clean
No, I don't want to be mean
Or break anybody's heart
[Verse 1] Every night I fly to the sky and cry Let it rain down on everyone below And as the tears hit her head She says, "I'm better off dead" But instead she falls into a bar And she orders a drink Until her breath starts to stink And she calls up an old friend Just to see what they think And they say, "Put down the phone Oh, just get yourself home Leave it alone, dear" She says, "I get too scared And I’ll accept any death I just care and that's my problem" [Chorus] And I want to be clean No, I don't want to be mean Or break anybody’s heart [Verse 2] Every flower, oh, has the power To change a life of a man or a woman with its color And every plant, mmm, just wants to dance In the warm breeze you can hear it say "please" And every car or machine has a motor And you really turned mine on And you turned my, my motor over And everybody, oh my god, in this town Thinks it's real [?] funny Or that I'm still right And, oh, my wild flower Don't you know you hold the power?
