True you ride the finest horse i have ever seen,
Standing sixteen, one or two. with eyes wild and green,
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch,
I could never go with you no matter how i wanted to.
[chorus (Two times)]
Ride on, see you, i could never go with you
No matter how i wanted to.
When you ride in to the night without a trace behind,
Run your claw along my gut one last time.
I turn to face an empty space where once you used to lie,
And look for a spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in my eye.
[chorus]
