Wild Horses

[Verse 1]

Well, cigarette burns on the window sill

But it's still smoking, he might still be in, so

You take your keys and make a fist of them

But don't let him lean in for a kiss

He's probably pissed again

[Pre-Chorus]

Wild horses don't stick around for heavy rain

And broken hearts join forces to numb their pain

[Chorus]

So hold me down, heavy rain

Oh, won't you hold me down, numb my pain

[Verse 2]

Well, she'll be gone for a while, and

So will I

All she left was a lie

A moment in time

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah, she said wild horses don't stick around for heavy rain

So why would you stay when it's headed your way?

[Chorus]

So hold me down, heavy rain

Oh, won't you hold me down, numb my pain?

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]

And we're like lightning and thunder

They can't escape one another

So they lie undercover

In the arms of another

It makes me sick at the thought

But I'd die if I lost it

So for now hold me down, hold me down

[Verse 3]

Now hold me down now, darling, hold me down now, darling

To your world I fall, into your arms I crawl

So hold me down now, honey, hold me down now, honey

'Til your heart stops working and this rain stops pouring

[Verse 4]

Let it rain, let it pour

Let it knock me to the floor

Let it soak, let it win

Let it bleach my fucking skin

You said your wild horses don't stick around for heavy rain

Heavy rain's heading my way
