Into The Wild
Lewis Watson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just want you to know
You're the only one that pulls me in
You changed everything
Like one small shaft of light
Flooding into my eyes
I will never see things just the same
And all I have doesn't seem so significant
And at the drop of a hat,
I could leave almost everything that I've ever known
So here we go
Step out into the wild
There's a beautiful storm in your eyes
We're perfectly intertwined
And if it's quite alright, you could be my way of life
Sea salt sits on your lips
Birds fall earthwards from cliffs
Thought I couldn't do this
But I'm fine 'cause you're by my side
And all I have, it doesn't seem so significant
And at the drop of a hat,
My whole world's getting different
So here we go, off the road
Step out into the wild
There's a beautiful storm in your eyes
We're perfectly intertwined
And if it's quite alright, maybe it's time to
Step out into the wild
There's a beautiful storm in your eyes
We're perfectly intertwined
And if it's quite alright, you could be my way of life
And we take another step into the truly unknown
Don't know why but it's somewhere that we have to go
And it's dangerously wonderful
So come on, come on, come on, come on
Step out into the wild
There's a beautiful storm in your eyes
We're perfectly intertwined
And if it's quite alright, you could be my way of life
