Wild Wood
Paul Weller’s Wild Wood is indeed one of my all-time favourite tunes. I love his voice…rough on the edges, but extremely soothing to the ears and soul. As with most of my favourite music, lyrics will always be one of the key factors that always get me.
In this case, the song (especially the chorus) resonates with the way I see my live; how I have been living it, regardless the obstacles … and eventually getting to where I should be going.
“Climbing forever trying
Find your way out of the wild wild wood
Now there’s no justice
There’s only yourself that you can trust in
And I say, High tide – mid afternoon
Oh people fly by in and the traffics boom
Oh knowing, just where you’re blowing
Getting to where you should be going”
