My friends all think I am a gentle man By the clothes that I wear, the things I say But when I hold you in my arms, there's a feeling you set free You bring out the wild side of me I thought I knew what love was all about And I made all the moves so carefully When I'm with you, I do some things I never thought I'd do or see But you bring out the wild side of me No one's there to notice when the change comes over me But when I kiss your sweet lips, I can hold you tenderly No one sees the stranger that the simple man can be But you bring out the wild side of me You always seem to know what's on my mind And you are everything I'll ever need When that love light's in your eyes, there's no place I'd rather be But you bring out the wild side of me No one's there to notice when the change comes over me But when I kiss your sweet lips, I can hold you tenderly No one sees the stranger that the simple man can be But you bring out the wild side of me Oh, but you bring out the wild side of me
