If only there were time and tenderness
Oh, for young hearts of wilderness
We run to the city, we build our nest
We work, we get drunk, we make loveBut your love won't take me from the graves to the heavens
Your love won't take me from the graves to the heavens
Before I'm gone your arms will be holding some other man
Before I'm gone your arms will be holding some other manIn this heart of wilderness
In this heart of wilderness
Come with me and take my hand
We'll run and dream in this heartThis time I won't turn out the light
Oh, this time I won't turn out the light
Make believe everything's alright
Kiss my lover a cold good nightMorning turns to noon and noon to night
Oh, morning turns to noon and noon to night
My heart is still filled with fright
I'm still the same broken piece of clayIn this heart of wilderness
In this heart of wilderness
Come with me and take my hand
We'll run and dream in this heart, ohhI've been dreaming of something underneath the hill
Just around the bin and underneath the hill
A fortune in wood and steel
In restaurants and people without namesOh sweet Jesus, I'm a broken man
Oh sweet Jesus, I'm a broken man
All I did was follow the plan
But what I wouldn't do to be lovedIn this heart of wilderness
In this heart of wilderness
Come with me and take my hand
We'll run and dream in this heartMine's the heart of wilderness
Don't go in there if you know what's best
