Intro: verse 1 Won't you walk with me on the wild side With my head in the air full of some child's pride And I'm up too far, I'm up too high I cannot come down, I cannot meet your eye And oh my lover, if I come knocking at your door Please turn away now if I come asking for more Oh my lover, you never call my bluff Gave what you have now, but it was never enough Instrumental (x4) verse 2 Now your mind is reaching for that door As you pick your rings up off the floor You never even questioned what that door was for You gave me what you had and you could give no more And oh my lover, why you leaving so soon This place is a prison, oh a lifetime or two Oh my lover, when will you return I'll be back, somebody in there in a fever, a pearl Instrumental 2 (x4) (x2) verse 3 And why'd you let me walk on that wild side With my head in the air full of some child's pride Let the sun come up, let the sun rise As it rips the curtain of your eye And oh my lover, is it always the same With your pointing your finger the way that I came Oh my lover, you never call my bluff Gave what you have now, but it was never enough Bridge Never enough And oh the places you'll go And oh the things that you'll do Oh just to have and to hold But now you must move And oh the places you'll go And oh the things that you'll do And oh the hand that you hold Does not belong to you Outro (x4)
