[Verse 1]
Childhood living is easy to do
The things that 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 horses couldn't drag me away

[Verse 2]
I watched you suffer a dull, aching pain
And now you've decided just 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

Faith has been broken and tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die

[Chorus]
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday
