Keep Something That Wild

i hear you sneak away
in the early light of day
all you leave is a note
and not much hope
but i know how you are
so i dont let it go to my heart
oh

tryin to hold you
would be like tryin to rope the wind
thats a game i'd never win
you just want to run free
and thats ok baby
cuz i know you're comin back to me
there aint no point in tryin to tame a mustang
so go on girl do your thang
i aint holdin on to no rains
you got me like a lost child
no you cant keep something that wild

you tried to warn me
but i got lost in your eyes
there was no way to fight
so baby i serenader
kiss me soft
touch me tender
before you take off
oh

tryin to hold you
would be like tryin to rope the wind
thats a game i'd never win
you just want to run free
and thats ok baby
cuz i know you're comin back to me
there aint no point in tryin to tame a mustang
so go on girl do your thang
i aint holdin on to no rains
you got me like a lost child
no you cant keep something that wild

i'll let that gate swing free
and when you're tired
i know you'll come back to me
oh

tryin to hold you
would be like tryin to rope the wind
thats a game i'd never win
you just want to run free
and thats ok baby
cuz i know you're comin back to me
there aint no point in tryin to tame a mustang
so go on girl do your thang
i aint holdin on to no rains
you got me like a lost child
no you cant keep something that wild
