Wild Horses (Jagger/Richards)


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 thru 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've decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or off stage lights
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've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I had 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 some day

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild wild horses we'll ride them some day
