Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away.

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.

We'll ride them someday.

Can't you hear me knockin' on your door
Can't you hear me knockin' down your dirty street, yeah
Help me baby, ain't no stranger
Help me baby, ain't no stranger
Help me baby, ain't no stranger
Can't you hear me knockin', ahh, are you safe asleep?
Can't you hear me knockin', yeah, down the gas light street, now
Can't you hear me knockin', yeah, throw me down the keys
Alright now
Hear me ringing big bell tolls
Hear me singing soft and low
I've been begging on my knees
I've been kickin', help me please
Hear me prowlin'
I'm gonna take you down
Hear me growlin'
Yeah, i've got flatted feet now, now, now, now
Hear me howlin'
And all, all around your street now
Hear me knockin'
And all, all around your town

Lyrics:
Feeling so tired, can't understand it
Just had a fortnight's sleep
I'm feeling so tired, i'm so distracted
Ain't touched a thing all week
I'm feeling drunk, juiced up and sloppy
Ain't touched a drink all night
I'm feeling hungry, can't see the reason
Just ate a horse meat pie
Yeah when you call my name
I salivate like a pavlov dog
Yeah when you lay me out
My heart is beating louder than a big bass drum, alright
Yeah, you got to mix it child
You got to fix it must be love
It's a bitch
You got to mix it child
You got to fix it but love
It's a bitch, alright
Sometimes i'm sexy, move like a stud
Kicking the stall all night
Sometimes i'm so shy, got to be worked on
Don't have no bark or bite, alright
Yeah when you call my name
I salivate like a pavlov dog
Yeah when you lay me out
My heart is bumpin' louder than a big bass drum, alright
I said hey, yeah i feel alright now
Got to be a...
Hey, i feel alright now
Hey hey hey
