Wild Places Lyrics

A prima donna, slipped into her leatherBut she was restlessShe knew it in her heart of heartsShe said "Tonight you?d better pull yourself together, Because tonight I?m gonna pull myself apart!" Out on the streetsEveryone is searchin? for a thrillBut she?s the only one that?s out therereally dressed to killAnd she said "Listen to me, it?s not a tragedy, This time I?m gettin? thorough and now there?s something you can do for me! And oh, oh, take me to the Wild PlacesAnd let me show you what the night is forCos I don?t wanna dreamI wanna set the wheels in motionI don?t wanna see your eyes across a dancin? floor" TV angel with her eyes full of smokeGazin? at the hero, he?s so mucho machoHe shrugs, he says "This must be some kind on joke." As she pulls on his cigarette and loves him to distraction. But she cries, "I don?t wanna feel like a machineI?m not the only one who wants to feel the in-betweenThat?s why I?m deep into this state of fascinationThat?s why I?ve lost the art of conversation. And oh, oh, take me to the Wild PlacesIf you wanna see what?s really in my soulBut you?d better keep your eye on where my pretty face isCos in the heat of the moment I just lose controlIn the heat of the moment, I just lose control!" Eyes out of focus, the sharpening of bladesThe sad tension, reek of patchouliEven the jokers are dealin? in spadesIt?s one dimension, it?s all so passé?Just then a voice said, "Honey, it?s too late to change your mind" Her face tightenedI could see she?d found a new designand she said, "Listen to me, it?s just a fantasyThis time I?m comin throughand now there?s something you can do for me... There?s something you can do for me! And oh, oh, take me to the Wild PlacesAnd let me show you what the night is forI don?t wanna dream, I wanna set the wheels in motionCos? in the heat of the moment I just lose controlIn the heat of the moment I just lose control."
