Heartland Songtext
von Wilder Woods

It′s been a few miles since my face got to see the sun
Walls closing in on me like a loaded gun
Dreaming of a place where I can let go of time
Somewhere I can rest my mind

Yeah, I've been dreaming of the wild, wild plains
Walking where the pine trees dance
Where the river runs deep and the birds all sing
In the great expanse

Howling at the moonlight, sleeping underneath the stars
Wondering why I let myself ever get this far
From the heartland
Yeah, from the heartland

I wanna watch the goin′ down and the risin' up
Stretching my arms out, laughing with the ones I love
Hoping for a slowdown, tryna beat the middle-class rush
Somehow we never get enough


I've been dreaming of the wild, wild plains
Walking where the pine trees dance
Where the river runs deep and the birds all sing
In the great expanse

Howling at the moonlight, sleeping underneath the stars
Wondering why I let myself ever get this far
From the heartland
Yeah, from the heartland

Laying in the wildflowers, watching clouds go by
Say a little prayer for the problems I left behind (left behind)

I′ve been dreaming of the wild, wild plains
Walking where the pine trees dance
Where the river runs deep and the birds all sing
In the great expanse

Howling at the moonlight sleeping underneath the stars
Wondering why I let myself ever get this far
From the heartland
Oh, from the heartland

Oh, from the heartland, yeah
Ooh, from the heartland
