Wild Horses II Lyrics – First Aid Kit

{Verse 1}

"Where are we going?", something you asked me
While time was flowing like a river, and we
We had it coming, we saw the sunsets
We saw the night turn, it was a safe bet
Mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

{Verse 2}

How can a lifetime fit in an hour?
The sky, it opened up, then came the showers
And we stopped at some motel with paper-thin walls
And floral linens and a bible in the drawer
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

{Chorus}

We played "Wild Horses" on the car stеreo
You prefer Thе Rolling Stones' and I like Gram's

{Verse 3}

We passed a canyon, we passed a fire brigade
Headed up the mountains, they set the woods ablaze
And then we got hungry, stopped at a diner
You flirted with the waitress and I didn't even care
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

{Verse 4}

Where do you go to when you look past me?
Do you see yourself miserable and free?
Such a strange notion to see you clearly
When love's shadow stood up and left the room
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

{Chorus}

We played "Wild Horses" on the car stereo
You prefer The Rolling Stones' and I like Gram's

{Verse 5}

"I hate who we've become," spoken like an absolute
Just listened to you speak, there was nothing to dispute
I guess something shifted, I guess something died
Thought I couldn't change it, so I didn't even try
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

{Chorus}

We played "Wild Horses" on the car stereo
You prefer The Rolling Stones' and I like Gram's
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
You prefer The Rolling Stones' and I like Gram's
