The Ballroom Thieves
Wild Woman
[Verse 1]
Left the homestead and poured out into the unknown
Yeah, a Wild Woman's heart beats in tune with my own
Truth is a thief on the road to the gallows of time
But if life is a glimpse at his death
I've been living a lie

Hey

Stood alone at the gate to my golden years
Though I never believed that you're gone once you leave
I lost my temper
Yeah, I lost control
She paid attention
And I paid the goddamn toll

[Chorus]
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman

[Verse 2]
Burn to my timber and shine like a pyre in the dark
Oh, a wild woman's gone and made off with my heart
So I set out to hunt for a peace only I can define
She can hazard a guest on her path
But she can't make it mine

[Chorus]
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman

[Verse 3]
Built an altar and prayed to what's holy in me
All the sides I let nobody see
She was silent, and I sailed alone through the sun
Oh, and for all of my pleading
She never once begged to be won

[Chorus]
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
She's a wild woman
