My heart became a wild creature

Just at the thought of you

My days got insanely brighter

When you came into my view

A zoo crowded my stomach

I swear that it was true

We laugh and joke and mess around

And I fall deeper in love with you

I would stay up extremely late

And wake up early in the dawn

When it was a bad day

And you needed someone to lean on

I was your shoulder

When you needed a good cry

After another bad break-up

Like a raven never to fly

Flawed at every edge

You were a masterpiece to me

Because love isn't about perfection

It's about accepting the reality

My love was spilling like an overflowing sink

And you were standing in the bay

I loved you more than the wolf loves the moon

But you didn't even glance my way

Why did my heart have to jump out of my chest

And climb right into your hand

I never meant for it to happen

It wasn't part of the plan

Love is something you can't control

It goes around it stages

All of our hearts are wild creatures

So that's why they live in cages
