Lyrics

Album version Wakin' up at the dawn of a new day On the open road And not a care on my mind, I got no time For any misanthrope Changing up this lullaby Into my own battle cry Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Like we used to be And like we're meant to be Lollygag in the lee of a highland 'Til my ghost takes flight In the sky I'm as high as a titan Feeding on the fire Shattering those iron bars Through the sky like shooting stars Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Like we used to be And like we're meant to be Changing up this lullaby Into my own battle cry Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Like we used to be And like we're meant to be

Demo version Five o'clock, got a hot cup of coffee A quiet place to work Fountain pens and a graph paper notebook How I love to learn I don't need the Viper Room 'Cause this is what I like to do Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Like they used to be In the 1970s Chillin' out on a day off in Texas Sitting 'round the fire I take a walk with my girl by the river This is all I require You can take your hamster wheel 'Cause I finally figured out the deal Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Like they used to be In the 1970s You can take your hamster wheel 'Cause I finally figured out the deal Now I know, this time, that it's for real 'Cause I love the way you make me feel Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Wild at heart You've got me wild at heart Like they used to be In the 1970s
