Right Kind of Reckless Songtext
von Ben Platt

I wanna jump in a lake in January
Sneak into a library and sing like a canary
Turn the place where my heart broke into a sanctuary
Right kind of reckless

I wanna keep my joy inside a bottle
Then spill it out for you
And make you smile something awful
Scribble out the details and then read them like a novel
Right kind of reckless


Oh, time′s gonna make you grow up by the day
And teach you how to say goodbye to summer
I'll try to be mature, not quite so insecure
But I refuse to lose my sensе of wonder

I wanna be as solid as the Rockiеs
Holding wisdom tight, but running loose as sweet lips talking
Following directions without knowing where I′m walking
Right kind of reckless

Oh, time's gonna make you grow up by the day
And teach you how to say goodbye to summer
I'll try to be mature, not quite so insecure
But I refuse to lose my sense of wonder


I wanna hold you like every hour′s borrowed
Letting happiness run wild, but leaving room for sorrow
I′m gonna love you knowing there's tomorrow
Right kind of reckless
The right kind of reckless
