Man I can understand how it might be kinda hard to love a girl like me 

I don't blame you much for wanting to be free 

I just wanted you to know 

I love you better than your own kin did from the very start 

It's my own fault for what happens to my heart 

You see I've always known you'd go 

But you just do what you gotta do 

My wild sweet love 

Though it may mean I'll never kiss your sweet lips again 

Pay that no mind 

Just find that dappled dream of yours 

Come on back and see me when you can

Well I know they make you sad 

They make you feel so bad 

They say you don't treat me like you should 

Folks got ways to make you feel no good 

I guess they got no way to know 

I've had my eyes wide open from the start 

And boy you never lied to me 

And the part of you they'll never see 

Is the part you've shown to me 

So you just do what you gotta do 

My wild sweet love 

Though it may mean I'll never kiss those sweet lips again 

Pay that no mind 

Just find that dappled dream of yours 

Come on back and see me 

Come on back and see me 

Come on back see me when you caa... aaaaan oh oh
