[Verse 1]

You used to be the girl who set the world on fire

And they doused your soul in water, but the flames raged higher

You used to act so tough like you could walk on a wire

And they called you devil's daughter, such a pretty liar

Yeah, yeah

You were burnin' like the summer, crazy like a fox

You hit harder than a drummer, like a wave on the rocks

You could play me like the lotto, you were playing a part

There ain't nobody could tame you and your wild heart

Yeah, yeah


[Chorus]

Take me back

To those barefoot summer nights

Take me back

Running down those highway lights

Remember when

We said don't let go until we die

Take me back

To that fire in your eyes

'Cause I know it ain't gone too far

Take me back to you and to your wild heart

Yeah

To your wild heart

Yeah


[Verse 2]

You used to be the girl that could light up a room

And with the flip of a switch, I bet you still do

You would leave a trail of danger

Yeah, wherever you'd go

And no matter where it led me, I would follow

Yeah

Mmm, yeah

You were beautiful in blue jeans, holes in the knees

You were smoking like a cigarette, I couldn't breathe

Used to rock around the ballroom, dance on the bar

Baby, nobody could tame you and your wild heart


[Chorus]

Take me back

To those barefoot summer nights

Take me back

Running down those highway lights

Remember when

We said don't let go until we die

Take me back

To that fire in your eyes

'Cause I know it ain't gone too far

Take me back to you and to your wild heart

Yeah

To your wild heart

Yeah


[Bridge]

You used to be the girl who set the world on fire

And they doused your soul in water, but the flames raged higher

You'll always be the one to keep me crazy inside

And if you got a wild heart, don't you let it die


[Chorus]

Take me back

To those barefoot summer nights

Take me back

Running down those highway lights

Remember when

We said don't let go until we die

Take me back

To that fire in your eyes

'Cause I know it ain't gone too far

Take me back to you and to your wild heart

Yeah

To your wild heart

Yeah
