LYRICS
When was the last time you were silent?
I don't mean quiet
I mean you could hear yourself inside?
I don't know
You should try, cause when I listen
After all that time, when I listen to me
I feel wild wild wild wild wild
Wild and free
When I left home for the road
I held my life in my hand
But then I slowly lost grip
And now I'm taking it back again
To say what I feel
And to feel what I say
They have to be the same
I believe that there's something
Maybe somewhere
A way to be
Maybe it's a person, not a place
Say what you mean
When I first saw you
When I saw you
I felt wild wild wild wild wild
When I lost all I had known
My grief led me down the road
To drown the sound of my pain
In that whistling train
Give myself to the unknown
I could have ended it then
I chose anywhere instead
And then it led me to you
Oh, the world was new
I fell in love --
It was easy and clear
But I could never say
If you felt the same ...
Oh, just when I think I know the feeling
Feeling you surprises me
It rises up and holds me gently
Mm, it's that look in your eye that moves me
It draws me in to see what you're seeing
I see you seeing me
In this moment
And you're thinking like me
It can't be just this moment
There's a flicker, a flame
It's asking what comes after
When I'm with you
When I'm with you
You make me feel wild
Feel wild
I feel wild
Feel wild
I see us being wild wild wild wild wild
Wild and free
