Wild Things Run Fast
by Joni Mitchell
He came
She smiled
She thought she had him tamed
But he was just as wild
Eating from her hand at last
Wild things run fast
In the dark
He could see
The trap that was lying in her sweet company
Eating from her hand at last
Wild things run fast
Winter beat the pines about
He heard the heater cutting in and out
While she dreamed away
In the night
It snowed
Fast tracks in the powder white
Leading out to the road
Winding from her tender grasp
Wild things run fast
What makes you run
Wild thing
I thought you loved me
