Colin Blunstone - Wild Places lyrics
[Colin Blunstone - Wild Places lyrics]
A prima donna, slipped into her leather
But she was restless
She knew it in her heart of hearts
She said: "Tonight you'd better
Pull yourself together
Because tonight I'm gonna
Pull myself apart"
Out on the streets everyone is
Searchin' for a thrill
But she's the only one that's out there
Really dressed to kill and she
Said: "Listen to me, it's not a tragedy
This time I'm gettin' through
And now there's somеthing you can do for me
And oh, oh, take me to thе wild places
And let me show you what the night is for
'Cause I don't wanna dream
I wanna set the wheels in motion
I don't wanna see your eyes
Across a dancin' floor"
TV angel with her eyes full of smoke
Gazin' at the hero, he's so mucho macho
He shrugs
He says: "This must be some kind of joke"
As she pulls on his cigarette
And loves him to distraction
But she cries
"I don't wanna feel like a machine
I'm not the only one who wants
To feel the in between
That's why I'm deep into
This state of fascination
That's why I've lost the
Art of conversation
And oh, oh, take me to the wild places
If you wanna see what's really in my soul
But you'd better keep your eye on
Where my pretty face is
'Cos in the heat of the
Moment I just lose control
In the heat of the moment
I just lose control!"
Eyes out of focus, the sharpening of blades
The sad tension, reek of patchouli
Even the Jokers are dealin' in Spades
It's one dimension, it's all so passé
Just then a voice said:
"Honey, it's too late to change your mind"
Her face tightened
I could see she'd found a new design
And she said: "Listen to me
It's just a fantasy
This time I'm comin' through
And now there's something you
Can do for me"
And oh, oh, take me to the wild places
And let me show you what the night is for
"I don't wanna dream
I wanna set the wheels in motion
I wanna see your eyes across a dancin' floor
Ooh lovers set the wheels in motion
In the heat of the moment
I just lose control"
But she was restless
She knew it in her heart of hearts
She said: "Tonight you'd better
Pull yourself together
Because tonight I'm gonna
Pull myself apart"
Out on the streets everyone is
Searchin' for a thrill
But she's the only one that's out there
Really dressed to kill and she
Said: "Listen to me, it's not a tragedy
This time I'm gettin' through
And now there's somеthing you can do for me
And oh, oh, take me to thе wild places
And let me show you what the night is for
