The Sweetest Flower

(Hungrytown)
Rebecca Hall & Ken Anderson

The sweetest flower I ever saw
Grows on the westward plain.
The only boy I ever loved
I never may see again.

The Blue Star blooms but once a year
When the sun shines bright in the sky
But if you pluck those flowers out
Then they will surely die.

And if you tell the one you love
That you'll be no man's bride
He'll leave you sure as the sun will rise
As sure as the tears you'll cry.

The flowers in my garden grow
And bloom from spring to fall
But wildflowers grow just where they will
And need no care at all.
