into the wild

Boy

Or I could follow you
Into the wild
You'd know your way in the woods
You'd read the wind and find places to hide
We'd live with the animals
We'd play by the fire
And maybe from time to time
Under white starry skies
I'd dream of lightbulbs
And hands that kept me warm in another life

My heart it races
And my mind cannot catch up
It lives in two places
It runs through doors that should be shut

Or I could stay right here
Watch you from behind
Wave 'til your ship's left my harbor
Embrace the edges of love in my beautiful life
I'd play with the animals
I'd sit by the fire
And maybe from time to time
I'd spot your face in the flames when I get tired

My heart it races
And my mind cannot catch up
It's all over two places
It runs through doors that should be shut
My head's asking questions
My heart's a determined dancer
So when the music is over
Will I finally get my answer?
