“Wilderness” is the second promotional single from Nick Jona’s self-titled solo debut.
It’s a soul-influenced song (with a little reggae) comparing love to prehistoric carnalness.
[Verse 1]
Gotta have it
The feeling you give me is savage
Why do we all gotta make it complicated?
The modern's overrated
Can we take it, take it back to basics? Oh
We can rough it
With the moon and the stars up above us
Like the millions of years, before we ever got together
A prehistoric pleasure
Can we take it, take it back to basics?
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
Naked as the day we were born
Did you know it could feel like this, feel like this?
I'll take your body back, take it back, take it back
To the wilderness, wilderness
[Post-Chorus]
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
(Take it back)
[Verse 2]
Before the fire
We discovered desire
It's no use talking, just let me hear you breathing
Or are you overheating?
Can we take it, can we take it back to basics?
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
Naked as the day we were born
Did you know it could feel like this, feel like this?
I'll take your body back, take it back, take it back
To the wilderness, wilderness
[Post-Chorus]
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
I'll take it back (Hey, hey)
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
[Bridge]
I'll take it back (Take it back)
Oh, no, no, no
(Take it back) Take it back
I'll, I'll take it back (Take it back)
I'll take it back, we're naked as
[Chorus]
Naked as the day we were born
Did you know it could feel like this, feel like this?
I'll take your body back, take it back, take it back
To the wilderness, wilderness
[Post-Chorus]
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
Let's take it back (Hey, hey)
[Outro]
Let's take it back
Yeah
(Take it back)
