The Horses

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We will fly away up high Where the cold wind blows Or in the sun, laughing and having fun With all the people that she knows And if the situation keeps us separated You know that don't mean the world's gonna fall apart And you will free the beautiful bird That's caught inside your heart [Pre-Chorus] Can't you hear her? She cries so loud Casts her wild note Over water and cloud [Chorus] That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' We'll be riding on the horses, yeah Up in the sky, little darlin' If you fall I'll pick you up [Verse 2] You will grow and until you go I'll be right there by your side And even then, whisper to the wind She'll carry up your ride 'Cause I hear all the people of the world In a little bird's lonely cry See 'em tryin' every way that they know how Just to make their spirit fly [Pre-Chorus] Can't you see him? He's down on the ground He's got a broken wing He's looking all around [Chorus] That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' We'll be riding on the horses, yeah Up in the sky, little darlin' If you fall I'll pick you up (Pick you up) That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' We'll be riding on the horses Up in the sky (Little darlin') And if you fall I'll pick you up (Pick you up) [Post-Chorus] If you fall I'll pick you up I wanna look over your shoulder, baby (Pick you up) I'm right behind you (Pick you up) 'Cause you know, you know, you know I was young once (Pick you up) Oh, and when I was young (Pick you up) Ooh, when I was young (Pick you up) Hey, when your mama was young I heard she was a real wild one (Pick you up) Gonna pick you up [Outro] Pick you up (Pick you up) That's the way it's gonna be (Pick you up)
