[Verse 1]
She laughs at the clock on the wall
Boots on the seat, won't act her age at all
Keys in her hand, hair up in the rain
She burns through the night like a runaway flame
No slow down, no tie-down, no tame
She likes her chaos with a sugar-high name
Forty candles? let 'em all shine
She's still that spark with a shot of wild
[Pre-Chorus]
No fear in her chest
Just glitter and grit
She wants the whole sky
And she's taking it
One more spin
One more dance
She never learned
How to stand still, damn
[Chorus]
Fuck turning forty
She won't grow up
Fuck turning forty
She's built for the rush
Wild heart, wild heart
She runs it hot
No fear, just dreams
And she won't stop
[Verse 2]
Morning comes late with a grin and a grin
A half-packed bag and a yes to the wind
Said "call me tomorrow" then disappeared
Out where the water meets the edge of her fear
She wants loud nights and a bigger flame
Cheap champagne and a dare at noon
She doesn't bend for a borrowed plan
She's got a whole life in the palm of her hand
[Pre-Chorus]
No fear in her chest
Just glitter and grit
She wants the whole sky
And she's taking it
One more spin
One more dance
She never learned
How to stand still, damn
[Chorus]
Fuck turning forty
She won't grow up
Fuck turning forty
She's built for the rush
Wild heart, wild heart
She runs it hot
No fear, just dreams
And she won't stop
[Bridge]
Let the old rules fade
Let the small talk die
She's not backing down
She's alive tonight
If the years come calling
She'll hit the gas
Forty looks better
When you wear it like that
[Final Chorus]
Fuck turning forty
She won't grow up
Fuck turning forty
She's built for the rush
Wild heart, wild heart
She runs it hot
No fear, just dreams
And she won't stop
Fuck turning forty
(never grow up)
Fuck turning forty
(she's built for the rush)
Wild heart, wild heart
She runs it hot
No fear, just dreams
And she won't stop
