Wild Child

 

The sunlight hits the city
As a hammer hits the glow
The gypsy waves farewell to me
As I hit the Poppy Road
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child

I'm standing on the hillside
With two rainbows in my hair
One is for the living love
The other for the dead
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child


I hear the sound of voices
And a working day begins
My souvenir is misfortune
And a burning heart within
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child


The echo of a guitar
And the singers standing by
They tell about her future
But they never tell me why
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child


The world is in my hands
The sorrow in my name
Since I heard you cry for me
I've never been the same
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child


I'm throwing down a coin
Into the wishing well
I hear it hits the water
As a rambler hits the trail
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child


So when you see me passing by
Looking for some help
Don't talk, don't laugh, don't criticize
But care about yourself
I'm a Wild Child
I'm a Wild Child

Fra LP'en Wild Child (1973) - denne sang er med musik af Thomas Koppel, tekst: Anders Koppel.

Dette var den første plade med Savage Rose, jeg købte i sin tid; nyheden om Thomas Koppels død giver mig lyst til at lade den gå ud over højttalerne for fuldt drøn og mindes en af Danmarks største musikere i nyere tid.
