Lyrics

So I fell in love... with her wild, wild heart
That floods its banks... and overflow-ohs-ohs
with a love, uncontained... and all the risk… beauty...and danger
That comes with wild things… oh the risk of wild things
Her heart's a wild thing… I fell in love... just a risk of wild things

She told me then... there is no safe place
But if you let yourself... be swept away-aa-aa
I promise you, promise a ride... more scary… glorious… than any-
Other wild thing… oh the risk of wild things
Her heart's a wild thing... I fell in love... just a risk of wild things

She said be ready... to hold your breath a long, long time
Let the waves... wash over you-yu-yu
And be carried, to lands unknown… velvet lakes… sun-drenched fields
Deep jungles... filled with wild things… and the risk of wild things
Her heart's a wild thing... I fell in love... just a risk of wild things.

She said I'll fill your mouth... and wash over you
Paint your body with mud… then lick it clean-clean-clean
And in the end... place you on a sandy beach... dead, born again, naked
But at peace... with all the wild things… and the risk of wild things
Her heart's a wild thing... I fell in love… just a risk of wild things
I fell in love…
You know it’s just the risk… the risk… of wild things… wild things… I fell in love
And her heart… her heart’s a wild thing... I fell in love
Just the risk of wild things
