Intro: Verse It's 4 in the morning and she'll be gone by 5 She's got me tangled in sheets and all tangled up inside I can feel her heart racing like a bird that needs to fly Oh, I've never been this close to something that wild She's like a storm of wild horses as they thunder across the plains She's like the mighty Missis- sippi when she's come out of the rains She's a raging tor- nado in an angry Kansas sky Oh, I've never been this close to something that wild She's like trying to catch a rain or hold sand in your hand She's the kind that sometimes wants one, but she sure don't need a man Oh, her heart might want to stay, but I know that's not her style Oh, I've never been this close to something that wild She's like a storm of wild horses as they thunder across the plains She's like the mighty Missis- sippi when she's come out of the rains She's a raging tor- nado in an angry Kansas sky Oh, I've never been this close to something that wild Bridge And when she lays her love down on me even though she's just a stranger Lord I know it might sound crazy, but I've grown to the danger That sur- rounds her, burning inside her like a wild bird She's like a storm of wild horses as they thunder across the plains She's like the mighty Missis- sippi when she's come out of the rains She's a raging tor- nado in an angry Kansas sky --- Oh, I've never been this close to something that wild Tag Oh, I've never been this close --- -----
