True you ride the finest horse I have ever seen,

Standing sixteen, one or two. With eyes wild and green,

You ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch,

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to.



Ride on, see you, I could never go with you

No matter how I wanted to.

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you

No matter how I wanted to.



When you ride in to the night without a trace behind,

Run your claw along my gut one last time.

I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie,

And look for the spark that lights the night

Through a teardrop in my eye.



Ride on, see you, I could never go with you

No matter how I wanted to.

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you

No matter how I wanted to.

No matter how I wanted to.
