Song by John Hiatt<br /><br>

She has the wind as a witness<br>

She has feelings that fly by night<br>

She believes in forgiveness<br>

But it's not love if it holds too tight <br>

<br>

And you can fly beside her<br>

But you gotta go where your heart says go<br>

She lets the bright lights guide her<br>

Through the rain and the drivin' snow<br>

Where she comes from she don't know <br>

<br>

CHORUS:<br>

She's a child of the wild blue yonder<br>

Flying out of here<br>

She's a child of the wild blue yonder<br>

Born in an angel's wing <br>

<br>

If you see her falling<br>

That's just a little trick she does<br>

She makes a dive for the pain that's calling<br>

Then heads for the clouds like a little dove <br>

<br>

She can't help her laughing<br>

She can't stop your crying days<br>

Sometimes it hurts to be having<br>

To hold on a love that surely must fly away <br>

<br>

CHORUS <br>

<br>

Medicine woman raised her<br>

Spirit father praised her<br>

Through their love she was set free<br>

From a baby kicking and screaming<br>

To a full blood woman dreaming<br>

With the power just to be <br>

<br>

CHORUS 2x<br>

<br>
