Wild

(album: Talk Of This Town - 2018)

It was a Coldplay concert on a Thursday night
You had a spare ticket
'Cause your girlfriend cheated and broke your heart
And you took it hard
I knew that it was far too soon to call it a date
But you took my hand and I swear something changed
'Cause I felt the spark
But she still had your heart

And I wish that I could fix you
'Cause she's playing with your head
And I wish that I could kiss you
But we're less than lovers and more than friends
And it's just killing me

It was a Coldplay concert on a Thursday night
40,000 people with their hands in the sky
Standing by your side, I should have been singing
But wishing you were mine was all that I was thinking
But I knew you wanted her when you looked in my eyes
And you almost kissed me underneath the lights
And it should be me, stuck on your mind, taking your time
It should be me, stealing your heart, driving you wild (wild)

Every night we talk on the phone 'til it's far too late
But she always comes up in the conversation
I shouldn't care, but you're only halfway here
You say you're over her, but you're lying to yourself
'Cause you're looking in my eyes but you're somewhere else
If you could just move on
I could be the one you want

And I wish that I could fix you
'Cause she's playing with your head
And I wish that I could kiss you
But we're less than lovers and more than friends
And it's just killing me

It was a Coldplay concert on a Thursday night
40,000 people with their hands in the sky
Standing by your side, I should have been singing
But wishing you were mine was all that I was thinking
But I knew you wanted her when you looked in my eyes
And you almost kissed me underneath the lights
And it should be me, stuck on your mind, taking your time
It should be me, stealing your heart, driving you wild

'Cause a girl like that don't deserve your love
And I know you know that it should be us
So if you're giving your love to somebody
Well it should be me, stuck on your mind, taking your time
It should be me, stealing your heart, driving you wild

It was a Coldplay concert on a Thursday night
40,000 people with their hands in the sky
Standing by your side, I should have been singing
But wishing you were mine was all that I was thinking
But I knew you wanted her when you looked in my eyes
And you almost kissed me underneath the lights
And it should be me, stuck on your mind, taking your time
It should be me, stealing your heart, driving you wild
Wild, wild
