[Verse 1]
Indian Summer, mamma's painted skin
Son said "did those hurt?" She say's "it's just where I've been
Pictures from a past time long before you
Son you're more indelible than any old tattoo"
[Chorus]
If you want to see your heart explode with love
Keep pushing, wait for it, wait for it
There's a lot of things I still don't know, I know
But I know how the wild heart grows
And the wild heart
The wild heart
The wild heart
[Verse 2]
People get angry, people get mad
Frustration gets to them and they start to act bad
But I know you're in there when the angels run
When you can't seem to find something you are proud of
[Chorus]
And if you want to see your heart explode with love
Keep pushing, wait for it, just wait for it
There's a lot of things I still don't know, I know
But I know how the wild heart grows
And growing makes the wild heart explode
And the wild heart
The wild heart
The wild heart
[Outro]
But I was a young fool too
Wild heart
And I had a dream it's true
Wild heart
They say to me what will you
Really do with your wild heart
I was lost
I was lost
Wild heart (Wild heart)
Born with a wild heart
(Don't you be so hard on yourself)
Oh she had one
I got one still
You were wild
(I was wild)
