A new start

Boys like girls- Holiday When I was younger I used to be wild As wild as an elephant's child No one could hold me down No one could keep me around Now it's your turn, take a shot Baby show me everything that you got Maybe you can keep me alive Maybe you can get in my mind But it's only a matter of time Before I run far away I need to take a holiday Maybe it's a fall from grace I gotta find a new place A holiday I'll set off on a new chase I gotta see a new face I need to take a holiday My father, he was always wise As wise as an elephant's eyes He couldn't hold me down He couldn't keep me around So are you gonna take your shot? It's the only one that you got Maybe I'll go out on a limb Maybe I'll jump in for a swim When the lights go dim You know I'll run far away I need to take a holiday Maybe it's a fall from grace I gotta find a new place A holiday I'll set off on a new chase I gotta see a new face I need to take a holiday (Need to take a holiday) Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa A new start I've broken too many hearts And I don't have any clue where to go I don't know But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday When I was younger I used to be wild As wild as an elephant's child And I don't think I'll ever change I think I'm gonna stay the same I'll run far away I need to take a holiday (need to take a holiday) Maybe it's a fall from grace I gotta find a new place A holiday I'll set off on a new chase (set off on a new chase) I gotta see a new face I need to take a holiday A new start I've broken too many hearts And I don't have any clue where to go I don't know But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday All of the wasted time The hours that were left behind The answers that we'll never find They don't mean a thing tonight |
