Wild child
Wind in sailsI'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
