Walk on the Wild Side
Eve St. Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pagans dance beneath the stars
Giant butterflies they spread their wings
To take us up into the clouds
On the wild side of your heart
Wolves and witches gather straw and
Light their fires underneath the moonlight
Where we sing and dance and howl
Through the fire and rain, my love
And I would smile
At my heartaches and pain, my love
And it’s all because
On the wild side of your heart
There are no fences no straight lines and
As the shadows take our hands to go waltzing
We lose all track of time
On the wild side of your heart
Rivers sparkle in the sun
Where mermaids frolic in the laughing water and
They call us one by one
And I would walk
Through the fire and rain, my love
And I would smile
At my heartaches and pain, my love
And it’s all because
On the wild side of your heart
The grass is tall and overgrown
But when I find myself all tangled in it
I don't want to go home
From the wild side, from the wild side
From the wild side, from the wild side
From the wild side

On the wild side of your heart
In the unrestrained part of your being
Pagans dance beneath the stars
People who worship nature dance under the night sky
Giant butterflies they spread their wings
Enormous butterflies unfurl their wings
To take us up into the clouds
To transport us to the heavens above
Wolves and witches gather straw and
Canines and sorceresses collect stalks of dried plants and
Light their fires underneath the moonlight
Ignite their flames in the light of the moon
Where we sing and dance and howl
Where we chant, move rhythmically, and make wolf-like sounds
And I would walk
And I'm willing to travel
Through the fire and rain, my love
Amidst the flames and downpour, my dear
And I would smile
And I'll be happy
At my heartaches and pain, my love
Despite my deepest struggles and suffering, my dear
And it’s all because
And it's entirely due to
On the wild side of your heart
The fact that the untamed part of your nature
There are no fences no straight lines and
There is no confinement or restriction and
As the shadows take our hands to go waltzing
As the darkness guides us in an intimate dance
We lose all track of time
We become unaware of the passage of time
On the wild side of your heart
In the uninhibited part of your being
Rivers sparkle in the sun
Streams glisten in sunlight
Where mermaids frolic in the laughing water and
Where mythical sea creatures play in the cheerful water and
They call us one by one
They beckon us individually
And I would walk
And I'm willing to travel
Through the fire and rain, my love
Amidst the flames and downpour, my dear
And I would smile
And I'll be happy
At my heartaches and pain, my love
Despite my deepest struggles and suffering, my dear
And it’s all because
And it's entirely due to
On the wild side of your heart
The fact that the untamed part of your nature
The grass is tall and overgrown
The lawn is high and unkempt
But when I find myself all tangled in it
However, when I get caught up in it
I don't want to go home
I do not desire to leave
From the wild side, from the wild side
Away from the uninhibited part, from the uninhibited part
From the wild side, from the wild side
Away from the uninhibited part, from the uninhibited part
From the wild side
Away from the uninhibited part
