When I Lived in the Wild Songtext
von Michael Fracasso

When I lived in the wild
The wind was my blanket
I never believed in a soul
There was no one as thankless
Until all the days collapse
From the present to the perfect past
Always to her love
All roads to her love

I carried a gun, and a prayer
When I was a soldier
Until I discovered the truth
Her tears on my shoulder
The nights were warm in her arms
I never knew any harm
From her love
Safe, inside her love


Yes, I was among the few
Who knew her secrets
Buried behind her smile
Where I might reach it
In the winter, I headed North
I was always a little off-course
For her love
Crazy for her love

The house has all been closed
The windows are silent
Like a child that′s hidden its heart
Where no one will find it
But the moon revealed for some time
The clothes on the laundry line
Haunted by her love
The ghost of her love
The shadow of her love
Oh, for her love

When I lived in the wild
