Coyote Red

Coyote red

Why do you lay with me

You could go anywhere you like

See what you wanna see

Coyote red

Why do you sleep atop my bed

You’re the wildest one I know

Coyote red

Coyote red

Why don’t you run away

You’re faster than time itself

And I couldn’t catch the day

Coyote red

I’d never tie you up instead

You’re the wildest one I know

Coyote red

Sometimes at night

I feel you next to me

A rare moment of touch

While you are fast asleep

Brings tears to my eyes

To know you love with compromise

The wildest howl I know

To match my cries

Coyote red

I’d never tame you, friend

I couldn’t if I tried

Cause you know you run this land

Coyote red

You just make me free instead

You’re the wildest one I know

Coyote red

You’re the wildest one I know

Coyote red
