Lyrics
A Good 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 takes no match to give me a spark
Now I'm trying out another heart
I've been winding 'bout a fresh start
I've found myself a good horse
Eyes burning on the quicksand
And I run it through the hollow land
I've fed it with a shaky hand
I found myself a strong horse
These are the promises I can keep
These are the promises I can keep
To live like I must
And ride with the dust in my face
In grace
I've found myself a good horse
Yes I've found myself a strong horse
But things remain not different then before
These are the promises I can keep
Yes these are the promises I can keep
To live like I must
And ride with the dust in my face
These are the promises I can keep
These are the promises I can keep
To live like I must
And ride with the dust in my face
