When they talked her eyes were wide |
|
As a wildcat's in the night |
|
She seemed hard-pressed for air |
|
So he calmed her and smoothed her hair |
|
They sat under the carport light |
|
Then they kissed and held each other tight |
|
Their hearts held a thousand stars |
|
Trembling in her small town yard |
|
He had a plan to slip away |
|
She said no, tonight it's okay. |
|
Things inside me will run their course. |
|
If i'm not there it would get much worse |
|
It could all come down on my sister |
|
He'll worry and miss her |
|
But he knows when cornered |
|
A wildcat will fight |
|
Those born foreign to flight, they say |
|
Teenage kids can't get it right |
|
They don't know some older sisters |
|
He'll worry and miss her |
|
But he knows when cornered a wildcat |
|
He'll worry and miss her |
|
But he knows when cornered |
|
A wildcat will fight |
