Wild child

Wild child Lyrics

There's a time only truth buys
In the early small hours of the morning
When you brushed the sleep from my eyes
And told me stories
Electricity
The day scr*pes the sidewalk
Sugar turns to salt
Talk is cheap
A half-remembered glance from a dirty window
I want to take a little walk
In the cool night air and see
Which way the wind blows

There's another side to the city
A life within a life unknown
Like blood in the veins of a body it flows
Down the alley nobody knows
Checkpoint charlie
Eyes from a garbage can
Reveal the man
Is on his toes
I want to take a little walk
In the cool night air and see
Which way the wind blows

I want to take a little walk
In the cool night air and see
Which way the wind blows

She gives a sky feeling to the night
Waiting 'til you weaken for a moment
She'll buy the diamonds
If you'll buy the pearls
For the moment
Electricity
The night lights a candle
Love turns to fire
I want to take a little walk
In the cool night air and see
Which way the wind blows

There's another time to the city
A time within a time undone
You can untie a knot
You can break a deal
You can sell what you bought
A cut will heal
A bone will mend
A road will bend
Street light blinding
Headlight shining
Take a little walk
In the cool night air and see
Which way the wind blows
