NINA GORDON - Horses In The City lyrics

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 live to run without the

reins again
