A wild child
Only take the time
From the helter skelter
Every day you find
Everything's in kilter
You don't need a reason
Let the day go on and on
Every summer sun
Every winter evening
Every spring to come
Every autumn leaving
You don't need a reason
Let it all go on and on
(Chorus)

| To me, personally, it speaks to rediscovering your "inner child". It says to run through the meadows and frolic and do somersaults and cartwheels and lay in the grass...play in the rain...be wild and undomesticated, like you were before the world came along and broke you. | |

| You're not happy for any particular reason, or upset - you're just existing. You're not separate from nature, or people; you recognize your place and are content just to let the rain fall. 1 | |
