[Verse 1]

Should I give up sunsets for marigold mornings?

Should I look for rainbows or wait for the rain?

Is happiness on the highway? Or is it parked in the driveway?

Should I lean on you, babe? Or should you lean on me?


[Pre-Chorus]

Am I looking for comfort? Am I looking for an escape?

Am I looking for you? Am I looking the other way?


[Chorus]

I'm a wild child and a homing pigeon

Caravan and an empty kitchen

Bare feet on the tile with my head up in the clouds

One heart goin' both directions

One love and a couple of questions

Am I settlin' up or settlin' down?

Am I settlin' up or settlin' down?


[Verse 2]

I could plant a pretty garden or just send myself flowers

Be a jet-set Friday or a Sunday hometown girl

I could stay a little lonely or let you get to know me

Yeah, I could love a picket fence if it wrapped around the world


[Chorus]

I'm a wild child and a homing pigeon

Caravan and an empty kitchen

Bare feet on the tile with my head up in the clouds

I'm one heart goin' both directions

One love and a couple of questions

Am I settlin' up or settlin' down?


[Bridge]

Ooh, ooh, ooh


[Pre-Chorus]

Am I looking for comfort? Am I looking for an escape?

Am I looking for you? Am I looking the other way?


[Chorus]

I'm a wild child and a homing pigeon

A caravan and an empty kitchen

Bare feet on the tile with my head up in the clouds

One heart goin' both directions

One love and a couple of questions

Am I settlin' up or settlin' down? (Ooh, ooh)

Am I settlin' up or settlin' down?


[Outro]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
