Bilingual
Who doesn't know what I'm talking about?
Who's never left home, who's never struck out?
To find a dream and a life of their own
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
Many precede and many will follow
A young girl's dream's no longer hollow
It takes the shape of a place out west
But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed
She needs wide open spaces
Room to make big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes
ย
She traveled this road as a child
Wide-eyed and grinning, she never tired
But now she won't be coming back with the rest
If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test
She needs wide open spaces
Room to make big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
ย
And as her folks drive away, her dad yells, "Check the oil"
Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leaving my girl"
She said, "It didn't seem like I left long ago"
When she stood there and let her own folks know
She needed wide open spaces
Room to make big mistakes
She needs new faces
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes (Wide open spaces)
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes (Wide open spaces)
