lyrics

I've been too long, being sweet, being strong, being cool to belong to these times. Setting my sights on pleasing their eyes has come at the price of my mind. I ain't too proud to call on you now. Let's get out of town for awhile. Run through the woods with me. Please don't be good with me. All that we should be is wild.

I take to you like the waves to the moon. Untame the roots of my soul. Under the stars we'll recover what's ours, unruly parts that still grow wild.

I just woke up, enough is enough, I'm trusting my gut here on out. Ain't gonna care about who's gonna stare. I ain't putting on airs anyhow. Sophisticated is so overrated, I'm ready to trade it all in.
I'll kick back and ponder about the blue yonder til I learn to wonder again.

I take to you like the waves to the moon. Untame the roots of my soul. Under the stars we'll recover what's ours, unruly parts that still grow wild.

Lay here with me. I don't care who will see. Let 'em judge till it eats them apart. Wasting my days on chasing down praise flies in the face of my heart.

I take to you like the waves to the moon. Untame the roots of my soul. Under the stars we'll recover what's ours, unruly parts that still grow wild.
