|
The river of doubt gave birth to a beautiful stone |
|
And in my hand I held it and I knew I was on my own |
|
So I picked it up and I held it to the sky |
|
And in my reflection, I knew I was all alone, yeah yeah |
|
Then I saw this girl with the most beautiful hair |
|
She had it wrapped around her for clothes she did not wear |
|
I asked her for a lock and she complied, |
|
after leaving gorgeous footsteps in the sand as if she didn't care |
|
Well, she was the prettiest girl I ever saw |
|
And the stone lay still without a flaw |
|
The feelings I had defied the law |
|
As I came to, and I went to |
|
And I took a look, a look down the road |
|
To see a badger and a one eyed toad |
|
they didn't say a word, they just looked at me |
|
With that wise old look of the old, yeah |
|
The wise old look of the old, yeah |
|
Then I went down to town |
|
To my favorite merry-go-round |
|
To the place where the magic horses fly |
|
And you seldom see a frown |
|
but then I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
It's all rusty |
|
You see 'cause that stone fell through my pocket |
|
And that lock of hair flew away with the wind |
|
If you chance to meet upon either |
|
Well you know where they've been |
|
But don't pick them up or try to find me |
|
They're much happier to be on their own |
|
Beauty like that knows no home |
|
And then if you take a look, a look down the road |
|
You'll see a badger and a one eyed toad |
|
They won't say a word they'll just look at you |
|
With that wise old look of the old, yeah |
|
The wise old look of the old, yeah |
|
but then I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and I can't begin to explain how |
|
I stole a ring from the flying horses |
|
and it's all rusty now |
