Gordon Nina Horses In The City Lyrics

Horses In The City Lyrics

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
