Wild by Melodie Yvonne
It’s hard for me to listen ‘cause your words just melt away
It’s not for lack of tryin’, though, your eyes lead me astray
They’re like the calm before the storm above the ocean’s waves
And they wane and wax so gently as their moonbeams light my way
Every time I look at you I’m lost in your embrace
And even when I don’t see you my mind still sees your face
My heart and soul are out of whack and so far out of place
I’m so far ahead, but still somehow I’m losin’ in this race
I feel the way you see me and I see the way you smile
I’m tryin’ to move on, but I’ve been movin’ on awhile
And every time you look at me I go another mile
Runnin’ in the fuckin’ wrong direction confident and wild
I’m tryin’ to out run you, but I let you set my pace
My heart it beats for want of you each time I see your face
All logic goes right out the window lost without a trace
And I’m just fool on the wrong block and stuck out in the rain
I feel the way you see me and I see the way you smile
I’m tryin’ to move on, but I’ve been movin’ on awhile
And every time you look at me I go another mile
Runnin’ in the fuckin’ wrong direction confident and wild
Each time I look into your eyes I’m lost in outer space
I’m tryin’ not to panic, but my guidebook’s been erased
I know I should be patient but I’ve had all I can take
And I know that I should run away, but I just need a taste
I feel the way you see me and I see the way you smile
I’m tryin’ to move on, but I’ve been movin’ on awhile
And every time you look at me I go another mile
Runnin’ in the fuckin’ wrong direction confident and wild
Runnin’ in the fuckin’ wrong direction confident and wild
