Born With a Wild Heart

Born in a world where the money rules
Her destiny lead by a silver spoon
Her momma constantly put the pressure on
Expected her to please everyone
Grew up with the best that money could buy
Still there was something missin' deep inside

She was tired of her rich folks ways
A young lady of 18, missed those childhood games
Her soul cried out, to feel alive
Tired of feeling like a mannequin inside
She longed to go out and have some fun
And wanted to reach the far side of the sun

Born with a wild heart
Wanted to run with it
But wasn't sure how far
Tired of wishing on a star
Her family didn't have a clue
But in her mind she always knew
Like a restless soul from the start
Born with a wild heart

One night she slipped right out the door
She knew that there was more life to explore
In her car, she sped into the street
Hit a club, kicked the shoes right off her feet
A young man asked her for a dance
Said life can be about taking a chance

There was something 'bout his wild ways
That seemed to pull her heart into his gaze
He was a little sassy, but she liked his charm
Felt at ease, no need for alarm
She hadn't know him for long after all
But she could feel herself starting to fall

Born with a wild heart
Wanted to run with it
But wasn't sure how far
Tired of wishing on a star
Her family didn't have a clue
But in her mind she always knew
Like a restless soul from the start
Born with a wild heart

She threw aside her rich world ways
Didn't want that girl of yesterday
And for the first time in her life
She had never felt so alive

Born with a wild heart
Wanted to run with it
But wasn't sure how far
Tired of wishing on a star
Her family didn't have a clue
But in her mind she always knew
Like a restless soul from the start
Born with a wild heart
