I saw something wild
Its innocence and freedom
Knew no rules or boundaries
It did what ever it wanted to do
I loved to watch it run
It mostly kept its distance
But whenever it came near me
I felt wild too
And when it wasn't around
All I felt was tame and bound

CHORUS:
You were so beautiful
From where I stood
So I chased you down and held you
As close as I could
That's when the fire turned cold
Maybe you're not supposed to hold
Something wild

Oh but how could I resist
I am only human
How could I not want you
When you looked at me that way
The fire in your eyes
I hoped was burning for me
I couldn't take all that temptation
For another day

CHORUS

I saw something wild and free
Why couldn't I just let it be

But you were so beautiful
From where I stood
You were so beautiful
From where I stood
So I chased you down and held you
As close as I could
That's when the fire turned cold
I almost made ice out of gold
Maybe you're not supposed to hold
Something wild

Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
