Stay Wild

I am caught in the gaze of a photograph
Vivid colors are fading fast
We are years and years apart
Sharing one beating heart
If my words could reach you now
Stay wild. Stay Wild.
Let your stories come alive
Stay a Child
If I let the snow
Kiss my skin until I cry
Can I let go?
Let my breath grow wider
Wider, can I
Take you to a wild place tonight?
You're so quiet
A cry hidden in your throat
You close the door, climb a chair, manage to open the window
Terrified
In the only home you know
Counting stars on the ground below
If my voice could reach you now
Stay wild. Stay Wild.
Let your stories stay alive
Stay a Child
If I let the snow
Kiss my skin until I cry
Can I let go?
Let my breath grow wider
Wider, can I
Take you to a wild place tonight?
If I let the cold
Remind me of the times
You were alone
Let your voice grow louder
Louder, can I
Hold you in a safe space tonight?
There's a place we can always find
In the tallest pine
Let's climb higher, higher, let's hide
My dearest child from the world
The world cannot reach us now
We're alone you and I
You sing louder, louder when I
Hold you in a safe space tonight
oooh
Oooh
Aaah
Higher. Higher.
If I let the cold
Remind me of the times you were alone
Let your voice grow louder, louder when I
Take you to a wild place tonight
My dearest Child
