Two Horses

Lyrics

[Intro] Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh [Verse 1] I'm a faraway traveller I travel alone Searching in the mist For what I know exists for me Out there *Whistling* [Verse 2] Solitary awaits me out there I know she will She was there before the rain Before these dunes, before they made The pyramids [Chorus] Oh, waited so long Have I finally found the road to lead on? [Verse 3] The moon was low, and the road dusty When I was captured by some thieves, my pockets emptied And I said — "you'll have to kill me To cut this jewel out of me" They let me go Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh [Verse 4] Stopped at the next bar for a neat drink Across from where I sat a man gazed at me He looked just like James Dean On the silver screen, our eyes did meet And he winked at me [Chorus] Is this the one? Have I finally found a man to lean on? "Will you help me and my horses on my way Through night and day?" [Bridge] Oh, I can see my destination on the line And if the stars are aligned Not gonna be a next time I'll check him as he's sleeping Can never trust a man who's drinking whiskey at the bar alone But his arms are around your waist And your hair is blowing in the wind and it felt alright Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh And on that second night he came for me He took a knife out of his boot and silently I learned the truth He was a liar A leech and a beggar And through the embers I watched him kill my horses Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh [Outro] Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh River, river take me Down to the waterfall Won't come back at all Just let me fall Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
