Wild Woman

Left the homestead and poured out into the unknown
A wild woman's heart beats in tune with my own
Truth is a thief on the road to the gallows of time
But if life is a glimpse it is death
I've been living a lie

Stood alone at the gate of my golden years
Though I never believed that you're gone once you leave
I lost my temper
I lost control
She paid attention
And I paid the goddamn tolls
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman

Burn to my timber and shine like a pyre in the dark
Oh a wild woman's gone and made off with my heart
So I set out to hunt for a peace only I can define
She can hazard a guest on her path
But she can't make it mine
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman

Built an altar and prayed to what's holy in me
All the sides I let nobody see
She was silent and I sailed alone through the sun
And for all of my pleading
She never once begged to be worn

She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
