they walk the horses home at night right by my
|
window they pull their carriages along busy city
|
streets it's from another time it's like a lullaby but i
|
don't think that i can sleep tonight so i count the
|
streetlights i count the stars i make a wish and
|
wonder where you are i wonder if i'll live long
|
enough to feel again help me 'cause i'm falling out
|
of grace i hang my head and hide my face i don't
|
know what it is i just feel out of place like horses in
|
the city i played the game i dropped the ball i lost
|
another friend i gained a future but i can't see
|
where the future ends i'd write a letter or write a
|
song but once again my voice just comes out
|
wrong i wonder if i'll live long enough to sing again
|
but they don't seem frightened as the cars go
|
speeding by so why am i so terrified to close my
|
eyes tonight i'm just afraid there's no time no time
|
this time they walk the horses home at night right
|
by my window they pull their carriages along busy
|
city streets i wonder if they'll live to run without the
|
reins again
