I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild, and unruly.
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of blue bonnets
In a blanket made of stars.
Oh, it sounds good to me, I said…
Cowboy, take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free, oh, I pray, closer to heaven above
And closer to you - closer to you.
I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall.
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall.
I wanna be the only one, for miles and miles.
Except for maybe you, and your simple smile.
Oh, it sounds good to me.
Yes, it sounds so good to me.
Cowboy, take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free, oh, I pray, closer to heaven above
And closer to you - closer to you.
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild, and unruly.
Oh, it sounds so good to me.
Cowboy, take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free, oh, I pray, closer to heaven above
And closer to you - closer to you.
Closer to you.
Cowboy, take me away, closer to you.
