Wild Child

I'll be waiting for you to come home

I've made my best attempts to prove that to you

I've been waiting for you to show up

I only hope that I can

Keep you safe the whole night through

She was born a wild child

She grew up in the dirt and rain

Just a stones throw away

From the train that shook her awake

In the middle of the night

Oh, my darling mountain girl

You blurred the lines

And showed me everything was right

It's the sweetest song to sing

Now that I have found the only one

That I'll ever need in my life

My dear, I mean every word

I placed one knee upon the train track

A blood red moon hanging above the two of us

Ill leave my heart there by your bedside

If you swear your eyes won't stray from our love

Oh my darling mountain girl

You closed the blinds and gave me

All I'll ever need

It's the sweetest song to sing

When it's one of love and all the happiness you bring to my life

So I'll tell you what

We'll move west when the east is won

When all our vows are said and done

You know you will always be my only one

Oh, my darling mountain girl

Please don't grow tired of me saying I love you so

Oh, it's the sweetest song to sing

This song about our love,

So I shout it out, below and above, to heaven and hell
