Lyrics
[Verse 1] I found a map beneath the paper sky A crooked line that dared me to decide Past yellow fields and telephone poles I followed where the open current flowed [Pre-Chorus] Every mile unfastens something tight Every turn gives back a little light [Chorus] Take me where the wild road bends Where the far blue starts and never ends I’ve got a heart that’s learning how to move And a thousand little reasons to choose Take me where the highland air is clear Leave the borrowed doubt behind us here If the world is wide, then let it be There’s a bigger version waiting underneath me [Verse 2] A red kite lifted over harvested grain Its single thread cut cleanly through the plain I heard the distant bells across the hill And felt the fear inside me losing will [Pre-Chorus] No sign can promise what the turn will bring Still I can trust the pull beneath my feet [Chorus] Take me where the wild road bends Where the far blue starts and never ends I’ve got a heart that’s learning how to move And a thousand little reasons to choose Take me where the highland air is clear Leave the borrowed doubt behind us here If the world is wide, then let it be There’s a bigger version waiting underneath me [Bridge] I don’t need a perfect direction I don’t need the whole horizon named One brave step becomes a new connection One deep breath can change the shape of fate [Final Chorus] Take me where the wild road bends Where the far blue starts and never ends I’ve got a heart that’s learning how to move And a thousand little reasons to choose Take me where the highland air is clear Leave the borrowed doubt behind us here If the world is wide, then let it be There’s a bigger version waiting underneath me [Outro] The line goes on, the open country sings I’m becoming more than all my smaller things
