Came to occupy the second position on the Mainstream Rock Tracks and Ireland in fourth singles chart. Here are the lyrics and video:
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
You're dangerous, 'cos you're honest.
You're dangerous, you do not know what you want.
Well you left my heart empty as a vacant lot
For any spirit to haunt.
You're an accident waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass left there on the beach.
Well you tell me things
I know you're not Supposed To
Then you leave me just out of reach.
Sha La La Hey Hey (2x)
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna fall at the foot of thee?
Well you stole it 'cos I needed the cash
And you Killed it 'cos I wanted revenge.
Well you lied to me 'cos I Asked you to.
Baby, can we still be friends?
Hey Hey Sha la la (2x)
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna fall at the foot of thee?
Oh, the deeper I spin
Oh, the hunter will sin for your ivory skin.
Took a drive in the dirty rain
To a place where the wind calls your name
Under the trees, the river laughing at you and me.
Hallelujah! Heaven's white rose
The doors you open I just can not close.
Do not turn around, do not turn around again.
Do not turn around your gypsy heart.
Do not turn around, do not turn around again.
Do not turn around, and do not look back.
Come on now love, do not you look back.
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna taste your saltwater kisses?
Who's gonna take the place of me?
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna tame the heart of thee?
