Wild One

Wild one Won't you please come home
You've been away too long, will you?
We need you home We need you near
Come back wild one, will you?
How can we live without your love
You know that would kill you
How can we carry on
When you are gone my wild one.
So you go your way
Wild one I'll try and follow
And if you change your mind
I will be waiting here for you tomorrow
for I would beg for you
I would steal and I would borrow
I'd do anything, anything at all
to end this sorrow.
Wild one the gypsies warned of the danger
You can laugh and joke with friends
But don't you talk to strangers
Although their offers may be sweet I'd bet and I would wager
Away you'll stray and never come back
To those who love and made you.
