He came to me in early spring
And in a season taught me everything
21 years wiser than the teenage love I had seen
Maybe that was why he called me little green
Like rising light bleeds through a broken blind
He helped me find my way with golden lines
I recognised his language, and though it seemed foreign
His words stayed with me, right through the autumn
And beyond
And beyond
He drowned out all the voices in the crowd
By speaking words of wisdom, he silenced every doubt
And the wild self inside of me
Was given time and space to breathe
He told me be a wildflower
Grow amongst the roses and the thorns
And be brave my love, cause we're not here for long
And you can't live a life that you don't love
Yeah you can't live a life that you don't love
He left my bed in late July
He said you don't have to answer, until you've questioned why
It's crazy how somebody else
Can really help you find yourself
He told me be a wildflower
Grow amongst the roses and the thorns
And be brave my love, cause we're not here for long
And you can't live a life that you don't love
Yeah you can't live a life that you don't love
He came to me in early spring
And in a season taught me everything
