Headstrong and you're wild like a fire
Stumbled your way across the dance floor
Find something to take you higher
Well I'm not quite ready
I'm not ready to go
Let's go on down to the well tonight honey
And let the water overflow

May you always be the wild one
Happy and free
May you always see the still water
Hide amongst the trees
And in the morning when the Sun comes up
And it brings you to your knees
May you always be the wild one
May you always be free

So paint yourself a painting
Using only black and white
Then put on some old clothes
Add some colour in the night
Well I'm no savior and you're no saint
But the river runs wild now honey
And I'm just glad you feel the same

May you always be the wild one
Happy and free
May you always see the still water
Hide amongst the trees
And in the morning when the Sun comes up
And it brings you to your knees
May you always be the wild one
May you always be free

When you find yourself in the prairies
With the mountains out of sight
Would you look up to the heavens
And think of me in that light
For I'll be driving somewhere
I don't know where
Just hoping and praying to the Lord
That I'll be with you again

May you always be the wild one
Happy and free
May you always see the still water
Hide amongst the trees
And in the morning when the Sun comes up
And it brings you to your knees
May you always be the wild one
May you always be free
May you always be the wild one
May you always be free
