You never belonged in this landscape
Where only concrete trees grow
Wind in your hair and wilderness in your eyes
A restlessness in your steps
I'd keep you if I could
But something inside you would die
Like a hawk without wind would be nothing
Something you must set free
The thing you love
You can't keep it anyways
You'd no longer hear if I shouted after you
You went to dance with the wolves
And from afar I hear you howling at the moon
Is it just the wind?
You went to dance with the wolves
You went to dance with the wolves
Our children have your tangled hair
And the same wilderness in their eyes
I know you choose your path, my cub
And I can't watch over your sleep anymore
I'd keep you if I could
But something inside you would die
Like a hawk without wind would be nothing
Something you must set free
The thing you love
You can't keep it anyways
You'd no longer hear if I shouted after you
You went to dance with the wolves
And from afar I hear you howling at the moon
Is it just the wind?
You went to dance with the wolves
You went to dance with the wolves
You left many times
You always returned
Now our furs have turned grey
I know that this time you're leaving for good
See the wilderness once again
You'd no longer hear if I shouted after you
You went to dance with the wolves
And from afar I hear you howling at the moon
Is it just the wind?
You went to dance with the wolves
You went to dance with the wolves
