Fences

[Verse 1]
When you're young, you don't understand 'em
When you're young, they're in your way
Just a bunch of wood that's standing tall and blocking your escape
Then one day you're swinging, falling every chance you get
Thinking one day you'll be strong enough to hit one over it
All these fences always getting in my way

[Chorus]
My heart's a wild one, needs wide open freedom
And somewhere to run with the winds
Got dreams it can't keep in, can't lock them away
And there's no sense in fencing me in

[Verse 2]
Then you're sixteen and you're sneaking out to his car at midnight
Yeah, you hold your breath and jump that fence and try to keep it quiet
Always wondered what was on the other side

[Chorus]
My heart's a wild one, needs wide open freedom
And somewhere to run with the wind
Got dreams it can't keep in, can't lock them away
And there's no sense in fencing me in

[Bridge]
Maybe someday
I'll find myself with a white picket fence wrapped right around me
And it might make me happy

[Chorus]
But my heart's a wild one, needs wide open freedom
And somewhere to run with the wind
Got dreams it can't keep in, can't lock them away
And there's no sense in fencing me in
There ain't no sense in fencing, no sense in fencing me in
