somewhere in the wilder side of me
is a land yet to be discovered
dancing to carnival songs
and indigenous drums
sweetly held in Mother Nature’s arms
who keeps singing
a lullaby
in unknown language
a lullaby that tells the story of this girl
who got lost one day in a big forest
only to be found by trees and birds
and wild things that whispered in the wind
magically taking her hand and lifting her heart
putting the stars in her eyes
one wonder at a time
somewhere in the wilder side of me
a little girl is coming home
one wonder at a time.
somewhere in the wilder side of me
the land is filled with stars.
