Wild Card Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I didn't see it coming
The kiss was so unpredictable
And maybe it's the mystery
In you that I'm addicted to it
It's overrated knowing somebody so well
It takes away the fire, yeah


[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's funny when you tell me you don't think you're all that interesting
I beg to differ, with you I'm out here on the edge of my seat
And every minute guessing, holding my breath you're fueling that fire

[Chorus 1]
And baby, you're my wild card
My perfect little twist of fate

You're my first spark, shot in the dark
Favorite part of everything
And baby, you're a sweet surprise
Lucky like a shooting star
You're a strong, free, just what I need, wild card
Hey, yeah

[Verse 2]
I'm an unsuspecting dreamer
Just marching through my every day
You don't follow any leaders
You make your mark, and make a change
You could see that I was living, oh
But baby, now I'm living the life, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You can blame it on the gravity
The reason that I'm falling
But the truth is I would jump
And girlm you're everything I've wanted
It's a revelation, yeah, kind of elevation
Learning to fly

[Chorus 1]
And baby, you're my wild card
My perfect little twist of fate
You're my first spark, shot in the dark
Favorite part of everything
And baby, you're a sweet surprise
Lucky like a shooting star
You're a strong, free, just what I need, wild card
Yeah

[Bridge]
You're my wild card
Got me happy like a holiday
Out of the blue, been waiting on you, praying for you every day

[Chorus 2]
And baby, you're a sweet surprise
Looking like a superstar
You're a strong, free, just what I need, wild card
[Outro]
(All I need)
(All I needed)
Oh, baby!
All I need
All I needed
You're my wildcard
Baby, you're my wild card
You're my wildcard
Baby, you're my wild card

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
