"Wild" lyrics - MATTHEW SWEET

Because I often wear
I wish they weren't there
I do what I am told
Come in from the cold
The laws will get me down
I want to ditch this town
But when I see you near
It all becomes so clear

At times I feel so mild
Child, you make me want to be wild
Wild, wild, wild
Child, you make me want to be wild

There was a wish I made
To burn before I fade
And go out with a bang
Be a bell that rang
So it is I feel
It's not so bad to steal
The limelight once in awhile
Just to make you smile

At times I feel so mild
Child, you make me want to be wild
Wild, wild, wild
Child, you make me want to be wild

Bear the brunt of ravages and lacaratings
Welcome all the savages and clean their feelings
This will be the final chance to start the singing
Join me in a loving dance and stop the faking
The fire, the fire in the furnace warms
And I'm a rocket soaring let me take your hand
The light, the light you are the hand that feeds me
You're the rope that leads me to the promised land
Don't let your sun set down on me
I need your golden rays

There was a wish I made
To burn before I fade
I found it in your face a very sacred space
You make me light my fuse
I think I found my muse

At times I feel so mild
Child, you make me want to be wild
Wild, wild, wild
Child, you make me want to be wild
