Dispath Flying Horses Lyrics

Flying Horses Lyrics

the river of doubt gave birth to a beautiful stone

 and in my hands I held it and I knew I was on my own

 so I picked it up and held it to the sky

 and in my reflection.  I knew I was all alone

 then I saw this girl with the most beautiful hair

 she had it wrapped around her for clothes she did not wear

 I asked her for a lock and she complied, after leaving

 gorgeous footsteps in the sand as if she didn't care

 she was the prettiest girl I ever saw

 the stone lay still without a flaw

 the feelings I had defied the law

 as I came to, I went to

 and I took a look, a look down the road

 to see a badger and a one eyed toad

 they didn't say a word, they just looked at me

 with that wise old look of the old

 then I went to down to town

 to my favorite merry-go-round

 to the place where magic horses fly

 and you seldom see a frown

 

 [CHORUS]

 but then I stole a ring from the flying horses

 and I can't begin to explain how

 I stole a ring from the flying horses

 and it's all rusty now

 I stole a ring from the flying horses

 and I can't begin to explain how

 I stole a ring from the flying horses

 and it's all rusty now

 

 You see 'cause that stone fell through my pocket

 and that lock of hair flew away with the wind

 If you chance to meet upon either

 well you know where they've been

 but don't pick them up or try to find me

 they're much happier to be on their own

 beauty like that knows no home

 and then if you take a look, a look down the road

 you'll see a badger and a one eyed toad

 they won't say a workd they'll just look at you

 with that wise look of the old

 

 [CHORUS]
