You were just a girl
Riding horses
You were sweet and good
Riding horses through the woods
And you could chase
The wildest thing
That didn't want saving
That didn't want saving
Wild things, wild things
Climbin' on ceilings
And breaking your dreams
They might come back to you
Wild things sometimes do
But never
Never
When you want them to
You were just a girl
Riding horses
You could be alone in the world
Riding horses
But loneliness
Can find you no matter how far
You ride West
Wild things, wild things
Can wander much longer
Across dusty plains
And never miss home
They don't need to eat when they roam
But loneliness
Can chew through the toughest of bones
Sometimes
And wild things, wild things
You can't bribe them with diamonds or rings
Wild things just want to be free
If you have a fondness for expertly wrought roots-rock with sharp lyrics and aching vocals, look no further—“Strangers” is for you. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 8, 2022
