[Verse 1]
I
I've always been scared to
Fall asleep before you every night
'Cause I
Was never prepared to
Find forever in another's eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Broken hearts and hotel messes
Wandering with no direction
Looking for some arms to land in
Better than I ever planned it
[Chorus]
I'll be your wild child, love on the run
So hold me closer, I'm your loaded gun
And I'll stand by you till the day that I die
If you keep me warm, I'll keep you wild tonight
If you keep me warm, I'll keep you wild
[Verse 2]
Oh, I
Feel like I don't deserve you
Too good for a heart as dark as mine
Oh, and all
Of the time that I've burned through
Never had good luck on my side
[Pre-Chorus]
Cigarettes and empty bottles
Rock stars and their supermodels
Sunset Boulevard for miles
Where I found you
[Chorus]
I'll be your wild child, love on the run
So hold me closer, I'm your loaded gun
And I'll stand by you till the day that I die
If you keep me warm, I'll keep you wild tonight
If you keep me warm, I'll keep you wild
[Bridge]
Keep me wild, keep me wild, keep me wild
Oh
Oh
[Chorus]
I'll be your wild child, love on the run (Love on the run)
So hold me closer, I'm your loaded gun
And I'll stand by you till the day that I die
If you keep me warm, I'll keep you wild tonight
If you keep me warm, I'll keep you wild
