True you ride the finest horse I've ever seen
Standing sixteen, one or two, with eyes wild and green
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to
CHORUS
(two times)
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 once you used to lie
And look for the spark that lights the night through a teardrop in my eye
CHORUS
