wandering child

i wish i met you further along

gave you my older heart

still and strong

but i wouldn't have a fire like i do today

oh

it burns for you babe

oh

you got nothing on my tendency to be led astray

oh

it took a blindside hit to show me the right of way

when your footsteps conquer the street

from your eyes to the soles of your feet

may my body and heart remain wild

for i'm a wandering child

i could keep an arms length

so i don't fall

i never learned to punch with my back against the wall

oh no

i gotta let it go

and i got a feeling

deep in my bones

i can't sit still when there's a space up in the road

there's a fire coming on you in your lane

and it burns for you

babe

oh

you got nothing on my tendency to be led astray

oh

it took a blindside hit to show me the right of way

when your footsteps conquer the street

from your eyes to the soles of your feet

may my body and heart remain wild

for i'm a wandering child

and i hope to god the time ain't wrong

and i hope to god the time ain't wrong

'cause i can't be holding on like this for long
