I was broken wing and cast aside
You were sugar cane, crystallized
On the porch swing sipping summer through a straw
In my arms
I was shattered glass in disarray
You were moonrise on a sunny day
On the porch swimming through a sea of air
Just sitting there
[Chorus]
And I could hope that this would never change
But I would miss the simple things taking place
And I could pray that you'd stay by my side
But wild things go only where the wind decides
[Verse 2]
I cursed the ground, the rain would never fall
You dropped from heaven into open palms
I fought the feeling 'til at last the feeling won
And it was done
But I can't wash away the dirt
Your eyes see beneath that dusty earth
On the ocean floor filling up my lungs
With your love
[Chorus]
And I could hope that this would never change
But I would miss the simple things taking place
And I could pray that you'd stay by my side
But wild things go only where the wind decides
I could hope that this would never change
But I would miss the simple things taking place
And I could pray that you'd stay by my side
But wild things go only where the wind decides
[Verse 1] I was broken wing and cast aside You were sugar cane, crystallized On the porch swing sipping summer through a straw In my arms I was shattered glass in disarray You were moonrise on a sunny day On the porch swimming through a sea of air Just sitting there [Chorus] And I could hope that this would never change But I would miss the simple things taking place And I could pray that you'd stay by my side But wild things go only where the wind decides [Verse 2] I cursed the ground, the rain would never fall You dropped from heaven into open palms I fought the feeling 'til at last the feeling won And it was done But I can't wash away the dirt Your eyes see beneath that dusty earth On the ocean floor filling up my lungs With your love [Chorus] And I could hope that this would never change But I would miss the simple things taking place And I could pray that you'd stay by my side But wild things go only where the wind decides I could hope that this would never change But I would miss the simple things taking place And I could pray that you'd stay by my side But wild things go only where the wind decides Explain Request ×
