The Horses

We will fly way up high

Where the cold wind blows

Or in the sun laughing having fun

With the people that she knows

And if the situation should keep us separated

You know the world won't fall apart

And you will free the beautiful bird

That's caught inside your heart

Can't you hear her? Oh, she cries so loud

Casts her wild note over water and cloud

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'

We'll be riding on the horses, yeah, yeah

Way up in the sky, little darlin'

And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

You will grow and until you go

I'll be right there by your side

And even then whisper the wind

And she will carry up your ride

I hear all the people of the world

In one bird's lonely cry

See them trying every way they know how

To make their spirit fly

Can't you see him? He's down on the ground

He has a broken wing, looking all around

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'

You'll be riding on the horses, yeah, yeah

Way up in the sky, little darlin'

And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

Pick you up darlin' if you fall

Don't you worry 'bout a thing, little girl

Because I was young myself not so long ago

And when I was young

When I was young

And when I was young

Oh, I was a wild wild one
