Something Wild - John Hiatt
Sometimes I don't even move a muscle Baby when you lie awake at night I think I've got nine lives in these corpuscles Girl, you know sometimes I don't think right I hear voices in the hall I wake up and it's nothing at all A hungry wolf, or an agry child Or something wild Something wild Something wild - tell me love is Something wild - tell me love is It's not as if we could think that things were one way And they would all just be that way right now When I was a kid I thought that someday I could tame this lion heart, some way, somehow Now I'm hungry for the love That doesn't know what it's dreamin' of Raging for the meek and mild Like something wild Something wild Something wild - tell me love is Something wild - tell me love is There's a hole where the wind blows through And some curtains hung But I can't hid a thing from you You know where I come from Well I tried getting there under my own steam 'til my very last chance was shot Now you're under my skin like a submarine I can feel you in my veins running hot Now if it's more than a new pair of jeans, a new car, some pocket money And a place to go Then we better get up and scream at the top of our lungs like it Was gonna die if we didn't make it so I hear voices in the hall I wake up and it's nothing at all An angry wolf, or a hungry child Or something wild Something wild Something wild - tell me love is Something wild - tell me love is Something wild Something wild Something wild
