Wolf Girl: Written for my first, wild girlfriend, who grew up to become a Children’s Librarian. Soon after we broke up, she married a man named Wolf.
lyrics
Words and Music: Cornelius Eady
We didn’t have much time together,
But when we met, I was such a lamb.
Caught in the high beams, friendly prey,
Ready, willing and able to be led astray.
Wolf Girl, Wolf Girl,
Smoke and powders, bottles and pills.
Wolf Girl, Wolf Girl,
Howling together was such a thrill.
Didn’t know I had that in me,
But you did.
It’s the quiet ones, with the shortest fuse.
It’s the quiet ones, lord, they fall so hard.
Itching for a Roman holiday,
Ready, willing and able to be led astray.
Wolf Girl, Wolf Girl,
Breath on breath,
Skin to skin.
Wolf Girl, Wolf Girl,
Romping and Stomping with your
Wild kin.
Didn’t know I had that in me,
But you did.
We didn’t have much time together,
But when we met, we met eye to eye.
Such untamed beauty—drag your heart away.
Ready, willing and able to be led astray.
Wolf Girl, Wolf Girl,
Blind dance on the edge of the ledge.
Wolf Girl, Wolf Girl,
All addictions must be fed.
Didn’t know I had that in me,
But you did.
