A Wild Heart Looking for Home — текст песни (John Denver)

This song was first released on the dreamland express album. it is the only album it has been released on.



Life in the city gets all closed in

When you stand in a crowd all alone

Wishing that someone would call out your number

Hoping that someone might phone



Nights in the city can drive you crazy

Theres so very much going on

Try to get quiet, youll miss out on something

Like someone whos looking for

Someone whos looking...



There, I almost got caught again

Lost in the night all alone

With nowhere to hide, crying inside

A wild heart looking for home



Sleeping without you is always cold

The nights are so dark and so long

Dreaming of touching your face in the moonlight

Filling the silence with song



Living without you the days are endless

The clock winding steadily down

Imagining footsteps, your hand at the gatepost

The wind shuts the open door

The wind shuts the open...

There, I almost got caught again

Lost in the night all alone

With nowhere to hide, crying inside

A wild heart looking for home



The songbird, she trembles all day long

She sings as if her poor heart must break

Watching the freedom that flies past her window

Dreaming wont fit in a cage



Fly away songbird, the wind she loves you

Your prison is forsaken at last

Follow your dreaming, youre bound up to heaven

Youre reaching for something more

Reaching for something...



There, I almost got caught again

Lost in the night all alone

With nowhere to hide, crying inside

A wild heart looking for home



There, I thought of your face again

A vision to have and to hold

My spirit still sings, Im flying again

A wild heart looking for home

A wild heart looking for home
