Once there were greenfields kissed by the sun; Once there were valleys where rivers used to run; Once there was blue sky with white clouds high above; Once they were part of an everlasting love. We were the lovers who strolled through greenfields.
Greenfields are gone now, parched by the sun; Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run; Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart; Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart. Where are the greenfields that we used to roam?
I'll never know what made you run away. How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day? I only know there's nothing here for me, Nothing in this wide world left for me to see.
But I'll keep on waitin' 'til you return. I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam. You can't be happy until you bring it home, Home to the greenfields and me once again.
> Today the sun came up again And this colossal wrong began And suddenly there wasn't any shine left in the sun You're turning off the sun You're turning off the sun By turning off your love To feel the sunshine of your love Become so colorless and numb Suddenly there wasn't any shine left in your sunshine You're turning off your love You're turning off your love Like turning off the sun It's so colossal It's so impossible It's so impossibly colossally impossible to me!

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
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away, Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain, Now you've decided to show me the same No sweeping exits or offstage lines Can make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away, Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie, I have my freedom but I don't have much time Faith has been broken, tears must be cried, Let's do some living after we die
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away, Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday
Wild Horses couldn't drag me away, Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday
