Rocking Horse Road |
| The chains from the bridle and the reins fell from my hands |
| The engines are idle and the ship sails on dry land |
| I stood there stupefied, I thought I recognized |
| Walking down Rocking Horse Road, getting lost |
| Shot through Vaseline, he picks up the paper from the lawn |
| And tucks «The Suburban Assassin"underneath his arm |
| He smiles weakly and turns away |
| I know you’ll never come to harm |
| Walking down Rocking Horse Road, it’s so peaceful |
| It’s like a photograph |
| From the other side of the world |
| I said «I want you only» |
| And then I left you alone |
| Crying on Rocking Horse Road, or somewhere quite like it The cemetery gardens, there are names not numbers on the gateposts |
| And the eyes in the curtain follow you like a smirking ghost |
| I know I must not look back |
| 'Cause part of me is waiting still |
| There on Rocking Horse Road for you |
| In a little dream house made for two |
| Well you were the one that made your escape |
| In your stocking feet and your sticky tape |
| All the way down |
