When I was younger I used to be wild
|
As wild as an elephant's child
|
No one could hold me down
|
No one could keep me around
|
Now it's your turn, take a shot
|
Baby, show me everything that you got
|
Maybe you can keep me alive
|
Maybe you can get in my mind
|
But it's only a matter of time
|
|
Before I run far away
|
I need to take a holiday
|
Maybe it's a fall from grace
|
I gotta find a new place
|
A holiday
|
I'll set off on a new chase
|
I gotta see a new face
|
I need to take a holiday
|
|
My father, he was always wise
|
As wise as an elephant's eyes
|
He couldn't hold me down
|
He couldn't keep me around
|
So are you gonna take your shot?
|
It's the only one that you got
|
Maybe I'll go out on a limb
|
Maybe I'll jump in for a swim
|
When the lights go dim
|
|
You know I'll run far away
|
I need to take a holiday
|
Maybe it's a fall from grace
|
I gotta find a new place
|
A holiday
|
I'll set off on a new chase
|
I gotta see a new face
|
I need to take a holiday
|
(Need to take a holiday)
|
|
A new start
|
I've broken too many hearts
|
And I don't have any clue where to go
|
I don't know
|
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday
|
|
When I was younger I used to be wild
|
As wild as an elephant's child
|
And I don't think I'll ever change
|
I think I'm gonna stay the same
|
|
I'll run away
|
I need to take a holiday (Need to take a holiday)
|
Maybe it's a fall from grace
|
I gotta find a new place
|
A holiday
|
I'll set off on a new chase (Set off on a new chase)
|
I gotta see a new face
|
I need to take a holiday
|
|
Start
|
I've broken too many hearts
|
And I don't have any clue where to go
|
I don't know
|
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday
|
|
All of the wasted time
|
The hours that were left behind
|
The answers that we'll never find
|
They don't mean a thing tonight
|
