Wild Like the Wind
Wild Love's Whirlwind
Lyrics
Another day gone by
Reflecting on the passage of time, another day has come to an end.
Another hundred miles
The distance traveled, possibly metaphorical, emphasizes a significant journey.
And he’s long gone again
Expressing the absence of someone who has departed for an extended period.
I lie awake at night
The narrator struggles with insomnia, contemplating the reasons for the absence.
Alone and wondering why
Feeling isolated and pondering the reasons behind the separation.
It just don’t seem to end
Expressing the emotional fatigue of an ongoing situation that seems unending.
Cause these nights were never meant to spend alone
Highlighting the loneliness, emphasizing that these nights were meant to be shared.
And this old place will never be his home
Conveying that the place feels empty without the person's presence, emphasizing impermanence.
One day here, next day gone
Describing the unpredictable nature of the person's presence and absence.
Blows in with the sunset, out before dawn
Symbolizing the transient nature of the person's visits, appearing and disappearing with the sun.
Yeah, moving like a Texas breeze
Comparing the person's movement to a Texas breeze, possibly signifying freedom and unpredictability.
Leaving me cold on nights like these
Expressing the emotional impact of the person's departure, leaving the narrator feeling cold.
And he’s just like a cloud of dust
Describing the person metaphorically as a fleeting and elusive presence.
Can’t seem to hold him long enough
Highlighting the challenge of holding onto the person for an extended period.
So I’m giving up on settling down
Contemplating the decision to give up on the idea of settling down due to the person's unpredictable nature.
Thinking bout leaving this one-horse town
Considering leaving the current small-town life due to the impact of the person's presence or absence.
Cause I’m wild about him
Expressing strong feelings of affection towards the person despite the challenges.
But he’s wild
Highlighting the person's untamed and unpredictable nature, contrasting with the narrator's feelings.
Wild like the wind
Describing the person as wild, drawing a comparison to the untamed and unpredictable nature of the wind.
And when the stars come out
Expressing a desire to communicate with the person when they are not physically present.
Wish I could tell somehow
Expressing a wish to know about the places the person has visited during their absence.
The places that he’s been
No, these nights were never meant to spend alone
Reiterating the idea that the place feels incomplete without the person's presence.
And this old place will never be his home
