"Wild Horses"

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

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer

A dull aching pain

Now you decided

To show me the same

No sweeping exits

Or off stage lines

Could make me feel bitter

Or treat you unkind

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

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

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

We'll ride them someday

Wild horses

Couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

We'll ride them someday
