Reuben & The Dark Stay Wild Lyrics

I once was my father's son
I once was a bullet's gun
Sure as a shadow has a light
Oh, I still have a darker side

Oh, I once was my father's son
I once was a bullet's gun
Well, has the medicine made its way into my eyes?
All these dreams become mirrors of mine

Stay wild, for love will not make you kind
Stay wild, the truth will not set you free
Stay wild, for awhile with me
Well, I will stand here like a mountain
And you will cross me like the wind
Oh, my love, I was a river then...
But not once did I try and run
No, not once did I hold my tongue Just a couple of stars in a straight line
I wanna see that light when I close my eyes
Yeah, I still have a darker side

Stay wild, for love will not make you kind
Stay wild, the truth will not set you free
Stay wild, for awhile with me

Oh, my love, I was a river then...
But you were too young to understand

Stay wild
Stay wild
Stay wild
Stay wild

I used to know when I was free
Yeah, I used to know when I was free
I used to know when I was free
I used to know when I was free
