[Verse 1: Adam Levine]
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

[Chorus: Adam Levine & Alicia Keys]
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away, oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 2: Alicia Keys]
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

[Chorus: Alicia Keys & Adam Levine]
Baby, wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 3: Adam Levine & Alicia Keys]
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie, oh
I have my freedom, but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears have been cried
Let's do some living before we die

[Chorus: Alicia Keys & Adam Levine]
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses, we will ride them some day, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Outro: Alicia Keys]
Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Wild horses
Wild horses

Thank you
Adam Levine, ladies and gentlemen
Thank you, my brother
