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 we’ll ride them some day

Wild, wild horses we’ll ride them some day

And don’t you know I’m bound to love you till I die

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
G
Wild, wild horses we’ll ride them some day
Am
Wild horses couldn’t drag me away

Wild, wild horses we’ll ride them some day
