I watched you suffer a dull aching pain.

Now you decided to show me the same.

No sweeping exit or off-stage lines

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 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;

Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday.

WGe'll rFide them somedCay. G
