There's a girl with wildflowers in her hair

And a reckless spirit without a care

She tastes like whiskey and summer nights

And she makes everything feel so right


I met her at a roadside bar

She was beautiful like a shooting star

She had a tattoo on her wrist

And lips that I couldn't resist

She said she was running from something bad

From a life that made her sad

She didn't want to talk about the past

She just wanted this moment to last

We drank whiskey and we danced all night

Under the neon and the moonlight

She told me stories about the road

About the heavy and the light she'd towed



She was wild and she was free

And she was everything I needed to be

A reminder that life is meant to be lived

That love is something you have to give



Whiskey and wildflowers, that's what she is

Whiskey and wildflowers, a dangerous bliss

Whiskey and wildflowers, burning so bright

Whiskey and wildflowers, holding me tight

Whiskey and wildflowers, setting me free

Whiskey and wildflowers, that's all I need

Whiskey and wildflowers, whiskey and wildflowers



We drove down the highway with no destination

Just two souls seeking liberation

We stopped in small towns and we made love

Under the stars and the heavens above

She told me she was never staying long

That she was just passing through this song

But I didn't care, I was already gone

Lost in her love, I was moving on

We picked wildflowers in the fields

And we talked about what love reveals

About the beauty in the broken things

About the hope that tomorrow brings


She was wild and she was free

And she was everything I needed to be

A reminder that life is meant to be lived

That love is something you have to give



Whiskey and wildflowers, that's what she is

Whiskey and wildflowers, a dangerous bliss

Whiskey and wildflowers, burning so bright

Whiskey and wildflowers, holding me tight

Whiskey and wildflowers, setting me free

Whiskey and wildflowers, that's all I need

Whiskey and wildflowers, whiskey and wildflowers



But I knew from the start that she would leave

That she couldn't stay with me

She was meant to roam, meant to be free

Not tied down to a man like me

So I held her close on that last night

And I told her that it was alright

That I was grateful for the time we had

Even though I knew it would end sad

She left me a note on the morning light

Said "Thank you for the wildest night

I'll carry you with me wherever I go

In my heart, you'll always know"

Now I'm sitting in that same old bar

Looking up at the stars

Remembering the girl with wildflowers in her hair

And the whiskey and the love we shared

Sometimes I see her in my dreams

Living wild and living free

And I smile because I know

That she's exactly where she needs to go


Whiskey and wildflowers, that's what she was

Whiskey and wildflowers, a dangerous love

Whiskey and wildflowers, burning so bright

Whiskey and wildflowers, that one wild night

Whiskey and wildflowers, set me free

Whiskey and wildflowers, you're all I need

Whiskey and wildflowers, whiskey and wildflowers

Yeah, whiskey and wildflowers
