A Horse Named Fortune

A Horse Named Fortune

There goes another timeless summer day

I walk through fields and fairs

Light headed, I moved through mirrors and the crowds

Lining up for the ride

Flashing from such a distant place

Can I find you at the carousel

Spin me ’round like you know my name

Wheel me back to those fortunate horse-riding days

Our coins dropped on the giant’s claw

What a prize

A thrill well worth the wait

Ghostly tones of some organ

Can I dance

To these sounds once again

Flashing from such a distant place

I will find you at the carousel

Spin me ’round like you know my name

Wheel me back to my fortunate horse-riding days

How could you be standing so still

I thought

You hated the way the world goes by

As you watch from the sides
