The Wolf

Wide-eyed with a heart made full of fright

Your eyes follow like tracers in the night

And the tightrope that you wander every time

You have been weighed, you have been found wanting

Been wondering for days

How you felt me slip your mind

Leave behind your wanton ways

I wanna learn to love in kind

'Cause you were all I ever longed for

Sheltered, you better keep the wolf back from the door

He wanders ever closer every night

And how he waits, begging for blood

I promised you everything would be fine

Been wondering for days

How you felt me slip your mind

Leave behind your wanton ways

I wanna learn to love in kind

'Cause you were all I ever longed for

Hold my gaze, love, you know I want to let it go

We will stare down at the wonder of it all

And I will hold you in it

And I will hold you in it

Been wondering for days

How you felt me slip your mind

Leave behind your wanton ways

I wanna look you in the eye

'Cause you were all I ever longed for

Been wondering for days

How you felt me slip your mind

Leave behind your wanton ways

I wanna learn to love in kind

'Cause you were all I ever longed for
