Lyrics
I?M JUST A WILD CHILD
SD2005
MAGAZINES ON THE BEACHES BLOWING IN THE WIND
I CAN SEE A LIFE STORY, BURRIED IN THE SAND
IT DOESN?T SEEM MUCH, BUT IT SURE IS ENOUGH
STANDING STILL I FEEL A CHILL, I?M HEADING FOR THE SUN
I CAN LIVE A THOUSAND WISHES AND STILL NEED ANOTHER ONE
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH IT?S TIME TO GET TOUGH
CHORUS
YOU CAN?T HOLD ME DOWN I?M JUST A WILD CHILD
CURIOUS TO HEAR ABOUT THE SUPERSTITIONS
YOU LET GO YOU LET FALL AWAY
SLIP INTO A MOMENT FROM YESTERDAY
I?M JUST A WILD CHILD, A WILD CHILD
LOOKING FOR LOVE ALONG THE WAY
[2:SOLO
VERSE 2
MIRRORS NAILED TO THE WALL STARING BACK AT ME
THESE ARE THE IMAGES OF A BROKEN HISTORY
I?M FEELING KINDA OF TOUCHED, THAT YOU GAVE ME SO MUCH
I CAN?T HELP FEELING FREE, LETTING GO THE PAST
I?VE GOT A THOUSAND DREAMS, DREAMS THAT WILL LAST
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH I T?S TIME WE GOT TOUGH
CHORUS
LOOK AT ME DO YOU SEE? DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
DOESN?T MATTER WHAT YOU BREAK THERE?S NOTHING WE CAN?T MEND
THOUGH MOUNTAINS ARE HIGH, YOU JOIN ME FOR THE VIEW
IT?S UP TO YOU AND UP TO ME HOW WE LIVE THIS THROUGH
I CAN THINK OF A THOUSAND WAYS, BUT NONE WITHOUT YOU
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH TOGETHER WE?LL BE TOUGH
