Wild Horses
The Rolling Stones
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
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've decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage 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 some day
Wild horses couldn't drag me away,
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

There are several theories. Some say this was written by Keith about how he did not want to leave his newborn son to touring. Others say this was the first thing that Marianne Faithfull said to Jagger after awaking from a drug-induced coma.
