Song Description
Two very different people fall in love. She is beautiful, wild and feminine, he is rough, tough and masculine, But they both find a place where they make each other more beautiful and stronger, together. Each one's weakness is made strong, hard edges softened. Together they are MORE than they would be alone.

Lyrics
ER & BARBWIRE
Jan Edwards / Mary Danna © 2009
She was a natural born beauty, grew up barefoot and wild
Free-willed like the wind, a golden summers' child
He was weather-worn from the sun, the dust storms and driving rain
Rugged as twisted steel, livin' life against the grain
CHORUS:
WILDFLOWER AND BARBWIRE
Wrapped around one another like Bittersweet on the vine
Grew so close they were almost one tangled for all time
Tender and tough
Nothin' but love
Together they were somethin' that would always be enough
WILDFLOWER AND BARBWIRE
When the dark sky threatens, hard times come pourin' down
They survive the worst of times, 'cause they're so tightly wound
Sometimes you will find them, down by the river in a sunny spot
Without a care in the world, lay together hard against soft
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
They were all each other'd ever known didn't want for nothin' else
Made each other beautiful they were nowhere by themselves
CHORUS
