Wild horses

(From the B side of the "Goodbye" single in the UK, and the end of the

"Blind" album in the US)



Thanks to Quinn Devine for first supplying the following.



Wild horses

-----------

(Jagger/Richards)





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

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

and now you decided

just to show me the same



No sweeping exits

or off-stage lines

can make me feel bitter

or treat you unkind



Wild horses

couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses

couldn't drag me away



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

couldn't drag me away



Wild, wild horses,

we'll ride them someday

Wild, wild horses

we'll ride them someday









It seems that there is a little left out from the Stones version

right before the line 'faith has been broken . . .'

the original has the following:



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 . . .



Although you can seem to hear the start of it almost whispered by Harriet.

Harriet and David thought it was too long, and thus cut the above out.
