Lyrics
The Horse
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's time I sling the baskets off this overburdened horse
Sink my toes into the ground and set a different course
Cause if I were here and you were there
I'd meet you in between
And not until my dying day, confess what I have seen.
