about
A song about letting go of unrequited love. When you've been in love with your friend for what feels like forever. And you realise its time to close the door and move on, or you'll wait forever.
lyrics
This love is wild
It brings me to my knees.
It makes me remember the things
I thought were all lost memories
And when I don't speak
My words hang in the air
Like the kisses you left on my cheeks.
I don't want to ask,
I'd rather just pretend
If my heart isn't broken
It never has to mend.
This love is wild
And it starts with your name.
When everything changes,
You know that I'll stay the same.
We made it this far
To the Grand Canyon
From a friend of a friend in a bar
I don't want to ask,
I'd rather just pretend
If my heart isn't broken
It never has to mend.
If we're never more than friend,
If we never start this
It never has to end* (I sang my own words wrong here oops!)
But I can't stay
In the Wildland and wait
I realised it much too late that you
You pack your things and go
And I can follow
I will follow.
I don't want to ask,
And I don't want to pretend,
Just want to understand
And let go of your hand
In the Wildland.
