Horseback

In the romance and the rain

Let me ride

Through the open fields away

Setting sun on better days

Heavy eyes

Heavy heart is home today

And towards the lamplight from lamps on in the yard

There’s a feeling that’s familiar where the plains are getting dark

It’s the calm I call on back when I have strayed

When I fall back to my wild and restless ways

Road is open, loose the reins

Care behind

Open heart and eyes the same

Where attention turns away

So do I

So do I

From horizons black and endless, cross the tracks and I depart

See the moon and see the memory of the small town in your heart

From the force that keeps on calling me by name

Ride on horseback til it turns another day

Hard to find and hard to know

She’s the one

She’s the one

Honey mane and honey coat

Honey stays

Honey goes

In the midnight hour, fast and wild and true

I the restless rider ride back home to you
