Prefab Sprout - Wild Horses Lyrics

Through the rails I spied

Your ponytail. I tried

With sugar cubes - And they're O.K.

But I don't think

I'll catch you that way

I hate myself 'cause you're so cool

With your mocking eyes

"Won't you look at the old fool"

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to

Look at you - Unflawed.

Now look at me - Plain overawed

Grace and looks take no credit for

Girl you're young

And they're part of the score

Like the chemicals at war in me

'Til I'm a wolf with an eye for the ponies

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to

I want extra time to play,

Afternoons in the hay

It's a sorry way for a man to feel

But sentimental is part of the deal

I hate myself because it shows how

I'm a fool for your rodeo

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have

Wild horses - I want to have you
