Celestial Horses Songtext

von Bruce Cockburn

Here come those silver celestial horses
Rays of the moon in the mountain air
I'm steeped in the steam of the wild hot spring
Maybe i'm melting but I don't care
There's darkness in the canyon
But the light comes pounding through
For me
And for you

Tomorrow may be a hissing blowtorch
May be a silken sky shaken by the wind
That whirls in the wake of those whispering horses
But there's always a pillar of cloud on the valley's rim
There's a darkness in the canyon
But the light comes pounding through
For me
And for you

Still river full of the depths of candles
Burning for the free ones riding on the other shore
Even at the heart of these breathing shadows
You can feel us gathering at the door
There's a darkness in the canyon
But the light comes pounding through
For me
And for you
