除了不可思議的美妙旋律，流暢自然的主唱外，此曲歌詞也比一般情歌寫得高出數級，帶有相當的難解把玩度。而詞曲之間的緊密結合，無法想像竟非一人所譜：

Skylark – Wildflower

She’s faced the hardest times you could imagine,
And many times her eyes fought back the tears.
And when her youthful world was about to fall in
Each time her slender shoulders
bore the weight of all her fears,
and her sorrow no one hears,
still rings in midnight silence,
in her ears…

Let her cry, for she’s a lady
Let her dream, for she’s a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She’s a free and gentle flower, growing wild.

And if by chance I should hold her,
Let me hold her for a time;
But if allowed just one possession,
I would pick her from the garden, to be mine.

Be careful how you touch her, for she will waken;
and sleep’s the only freedom that she knows.
And when you walk into her eyes, you won’t believe;
The way she’s always payin’ for a debt she never owed,
and the silent wind still blows, that only she can hear,
And so, she goes.

Let her cry, for she’s a lady
Let her dream, for she’s a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She’s a free and gentle flower, growing wild.



註：此曲的原 MV 現在網上可見，但實在是史上最糟 MV，絕對有損歌曲完美形象，建議不搜不看。

  1. 加豎琴真難得！但可以叫那吉他閉嘴嗎？
