Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Childhood living

Is easy to do

The things you wanted

I bought them for you

Graceless lady

You know who I am

You know I can't let you

Slide through my hands

[Chorus]

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

[Verse 2]

I watched you suffer

A dull, aching pain

Now you decided

To show me the same

No sweeping exits

Or offstage lines

Could make me feel bitter

Or treat you unkind

[Chorus]

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

[Verse 3]

I know I dreamed you

A sin and a lie

I have my freedom

But I don't have much time

Faith has been broken

Tears must be cried

Let's do some living

After we die

[Chorus]

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

We'll ride them some day

[Chorus]

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

We'll ride them some day
