  • Childhood living it's 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 not 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
    But no sweeping exits or offstage lines
    Could 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 dreamt you, a sin and a lie
    And I have my freedom, but I don't have much time
    Fate has been suffered 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 Writer/s: Keith Richards, Michael Philip Jagger
