Childhood living   You know, it's easy to do   The things that you wanted   I bought them for you      And graceless lady   You know, who I am   You know, I can't let you    Slide through my hands      [Chorus 1]   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 sho-sho-sho-show me the same      There'll be no sweeping exits (no sweeping exits)   No offstage lines (offstage lines)   It couldn't make me feel bitter    Or treat you unkind      [Chorus 2]   Wild horses   Couldn't drag me away   Wild, wild horses   We'll ride them some day      I know, I dreamed you   You a sin, and a lie      [Chorus 2 x 2]   Wild horses   Couldn't drag me away   Wild, wild horses   We'll ride them some day      We'll ride them some day - yeah
