Dispatch - Flying
Horses
----------------------------------------------------------------
The River of Love gave birth to a beautiful stone
And in my hand i held it, and I knew I was all alone
So I picked it up and held it to the sky
And in my reflection I knew I was on my own
Yeah, Yeah,
And 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 georgous footsteps in the sand
As if she didn't care
Well
She was the prettiest girl I ever saw
And stone lay still without a flaw,
And the feelings I had to fight the law
As I came to and 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...
Yeah...
Wise old look of the old...
Yeah...
And then I went down to town to my favorite merry-go-round
To the place where magic horses fly And you seldom see a frown
But then I stole the ring from the flying horses
And I can't begin to explain now
I stole the ring from the flying horses
And its all rusty now
I stole the ring from the flying horses
and i can't begin to explain now
I stole the ring from the flying horses
and its all rusty now, its all rusty
Ya see, cause that stone fell through my pocket
And that loch of hair blew away with the wind
If you Chance to see a pawn either, Well...
You know where they've been.
But don't pick them up or try to find me
We're much happier to be on our own
Beauty like that knows, no
And 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 word they'll just look at you with that
Wise old look of the old... Yeah...
Wise old look of the old... Yeah...
