“Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away.”
"Wild Horses (The Rolling Stones song)" (co-written with Keith Richards), on Sticky Fingers (1971).
Lyrics
Context: 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.
“Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day…”
"Wild Horses" (co-written with Keith Richards), on Sticky Fingers (1971).
Lyrics
Context: 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…
“A horsefly can't do a horse much real damage, but it can drive it wild anyhow.”

“If I paint a wild horse, you might not see the horse… but surely you will see the wildness!”
