Life in the city gets all closed in   When you stand in a crowd all alone   Wishing that someone would call out your number   Hoping that someone might phone      Nights in the city can drive you crazy   There?s so very much going on   Try to get quiet, you?ll miss out on something   Like someone who?s looking for   Someone who?s looking      There, I almost got caught again   Lost in the night all alone   With nowhere to hide, crying inside   A wild heart looking for home      Sleeping without you is always cold   The nights are so dark and so long   Dreaming of touching your face in the moonlight   Filling the silence with song      Living without you, the days are endless   The clock winding steadily down   Imagining footsteps, your hand at the gatepost   The wind shuts the open door   The wind shuts the open      There, I almost got caught again   Lost in the night all alone   With nowhere to hide, crying inside   A wild heart looking for home      The songbird, she trembles all day long   She sings as if her poor heart must break   Watching the freedom that flies past her window   Dreaming won?t fit in a cage      Fly away songbird, the wind she loves you   Your prison is forsaken at last   Follow your dreaming, you?re bound up to heaven   You?re reaching for something more   Reaching for something      There, I almost got caught again   Lost in the night all alone   With nowhere to hide, crying inside   A wild heart looking for home      There, I thought of your face again   A vision to have and to hold   My spirit still sings, I?m flying again   A wild heart looking for home   A wild heart looking for home
