Horses in the City
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 liv
e to run without the reins again
