Childhood living is easy to do
The things that you wanted,
Well, I bought them for you
Graceless lady, you know who I am
You know I can't let you
Just slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
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 offstage lines
Can make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
And I have my freedom, but I don't have much time
Faith has been severed, and tears must be cried
So let's do some living after we die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away, away
