In the bitter cold of winter, I watched him as he ran, driven by a freedom most people never understand.
Now they've built a fence around him, but there's still fire in his eyes.
Don't they know when the cold wind blows, it's just a matter of time.
You can try, but you can't hold back, you can't hold back, you can't hold back wild horses.
Now I've built my world around you, but this is not where you belong.
You're too much like him, you could never be fenced in for long.
You might hold on, but you can't hold back, you can't hold back, you can't hold back wild horses.
You know you can't hold back, everybody knows, you can't hold back, you can't hold back wild horses.
