The Wild Years

from Electric Daydreams by Michael Guy Bowman

/

lyrics

Oh, the Wild Years
You're wondering why the world is the way the world is
Oh, the wilderness
You don't know where to go or who to know or what you've missed

You're looking everywhere for something new
Do all the things you always wanted to
Live on the highway and sleep in the car
Bathe in the ocean and love in the bar

Oh, the wild
Oh, the Wild Years
Oh, the Wild Years, the Wild Years, the Wild Years
Oh, the wild
Oh, the Wild Years
Oh, the Wild Years, the Wild Years

Oh, the Wild Years
You're wondering why the people are the way the people are
Oh, the wilderness
Nowhere you've ever been has ever been so very far

You're prowling in the allies like a cat
Crashing on open floors and yoga mats
Your shirts are dirty and your teeth are green
But all you want is what you haven't seen

Oh, the wild
Oh, the Wild Years
Oh, the Wild Years, the Wild Years, the Wild Years
Oh, the wild
Oh, the Wild Years
Oh, the Wild Years, the Wild Years, the Wild Years
Oh, the wild
Oh, the Wild Years
Oh, the Wild Years, the Wild Years, the Wild Years
Oh, the wild
Oh, the Wild Years
Oh, the Wild Years, the Wild Years, the Wild Years, the Wild Years

Wild Years
Give some away to the way that you're on
Wild Years
Let people say they can't say where you've gone
Wild Years
Live for the light of the dusk and the dawn
Oh, those Wild Years

Oh, the Wild Years
You're wondering why the world is the way the world is
Oh, the wilderness
You've got to have a life to have the right to reminisce

You might seem crazy, and you may well be
You're paying the price of living fantasy
And if you can't recall the reason why
Look where the empty highway meets the sky
