Wild Horses Lyrics

Childhood living
You know, it's easy to do
The things that you wanted
I bought them for you

And graceless lady
You know, who I am
You know, I can't let you
Slide through my hands

[Chorus 1]
Wild horses
Couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses
Couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer
A dull aching pain
Now you decided
To sho-sho-sho-show me the same

There'll be no sweeping exits (no sweeping exits)
No offstage lines (offstage lines)
It couldn't make me feel bitter
Or treat you unkind

[Chorus 2]
Wild horses
Couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses
We'll ride them some day

I know, I dreamed you
You a sin, and a lie

[Chorus 2 x 2]
Wild horses
Couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses
We'll ride them some day

We'll ride them some day - yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
