Poor boy Peter didn't know how   To claim his miracle, lost his way   Cost him dearly like his dad   He lost his pride to end this way      It's taken a long time   But wild horses wouldn't take me back to you   Get out of town and take your lazy dog with you   Your train is running late and overdue      I was trying to sedate him   Trying not to blow, trying not to hate him   But time was as blatant as gold   Wouldn't you know?      He was clean out of feelings   Nothing to say, rings on his fingers   Were as fake as the kisses he gave   I said have it your way      I'm just a crazy fool   Took my time thought I'd be safe, oh   I said I felt the cold   Ain't got love to choose, oh, oh, baby      I shouldn't have lost my head   Shouldn't have lost the meaning that I said, yeah, yeah   I could have brought you home,   Get you back to what we both know, yeah, yeah      Ooh, did I miss my cue?   Did you back a fool?   It's what you thought of me   Baby      It's taken a long time   But wild horses wouldn't take me back to you   Get out of town and take your lazy dog with you   Your train is running late and overdue      This place, the crazy town   Too much time for girls to feel strange, yeah   Take back your lazy punks   There'll never be enough no, oh, baby      I shouldn't have lost my head   Shouldn't have lost the meaning that I said, yeah, yeah   I could have brought you home   Get you back to what we both know, yeah, yeah      Ooh, did I miss my cue?   Did you back a fool?   It's what you thought of me, yeah   Baby      It's taken a long time   But wild horses wouldn't take me back to you   Get out of town and take your lazy dog with you   Your train is running late and overdue      It's taken a long time   But wild horses wouldn't take me back to you   Get out of town and take your lazy dog with you   Your train is running late and overdue      It's taken a long time   But wild horses wouldn't take me back to you   Get out of town and take your lazy dog with you
