Something That Wild - Chris Cagle

It’s 4 in the morning

and she’ll be gone by 5

she’s got me tangled in sheets

And all tangled up inside

I can feel her heart racing

Like a bird that needs to fly

Oh I’ve never been this close to something that wild

She’s like a storm of wild horses

As they thunder across the plains

she’s like the mighty Mississippi

When she’s come out of the rains

she’s a raging tornado in an Oklahoma sky

Oh I’ve never been this close to something that wild

She’s like trying to catch a rain

Or hold sand in your hand

she’s the kind that sometimes wants one

But she sure don’t need a man

Oh her heart might want to stay

But I know that’s not her style

Oh I’ve never been this close to something that wild

She’s like a storm of wild horses

As they thunder across the plains

she’s like the mighty Mississippi

When she’s come out of the rains

she’s a raging tornado in an Oklahoma sky

Oh I’ve never been this close to something that wild

And when she lays her love down on me

Even though she’s just a stranger

Lord I know it might sound crazy

But I’ve grown to the danger

That surrounds her, burning inside her

She’s like a storm of wild horses

As they thunder across the plains

she’s like the mighty Mississippi

When she’s come out of the rains

she’s a raging tornado in an angry Kansas sky

Oh I’ve never been this close to something that wild

Oh I’ve never been this close to something that wild
