Bright Horses |
| The bright horses have broken free from the fields |
| They are horses of love, their manes full of fire |
| They are parting the cities, those bright burning horses |
| And everyone is hiding, and no one makes a sound |
| And I’m by your side and I’m holding your hand |
| Bright horses of wonder springing from your burning hand |
| And everyone has a heart and it’s calling for something |
| We’re all so sick and tired of seeing things as they are |
| Horses are just horses and their manes aren’t full of fire |
| The fields are just fields, and there ain’t no Lord |
| And everyone is hidden, and everyone is cruel |
| And there’s no shortage of tyrants, and no shortage of fools |
| And the little white shape dancing at the end of the hall |
| Is just a wish that time can’t dissolve at all |
| Oh, oh, oh |
| Oh, oh, oh, well, this world is plain to see |
| It don’t mean we can’t believe in something, and anyway |
| My baby’s coming back now on the next train |
| I can hear the whistle blowing, I can hear the mighty roar |
| I can hear the horses prancing in the pastures of the Lord |
| Oh the train is coming, and I’m standing here to see |
| And it’s bringing my baby right back to me |
| Well there are some things that are hard to explain |
| But my baby’s coming home now, on the 5:30 train |
