[00:15.103]	Say a prayer for the cowboy, his mare's run away
[00:21.120]	And he'll walk 'til he finds her, his darling, his stray
[00:27.451]	But the river's in flood and the roads are awash
[00:32.810]	And the bridges break up in the panic of loss
[00:43.968]	And there's nothing to follow, there's nowhere to go
[00:49.986]	She's gone like the summer, gone like the snow
[00:55.887]	And the crickets are breaking his heart with their song
[01:01.414]	As the day caves in and the night is all wrong
[01:12.226]	Did he dream, was it she who went galloping past?
[01:17.397]	And bent down the fern, broke open the grass
[01:23.269]	And printed the mud with the iron and the gold
[01:28.208]	That he nailed to her feet when he was the lord
[01:38.954]	And although she goes grazing a minute away
[01:44.489]	He tracks her all night, he tracks her all day
[01:49.681]	Oh, blind to her presence, except to compare
[01:55.098]	His injury here with her punishment there
[02:05.141]	Then at home on a branch, in the highest tree
[02:10.971]	A songbird sings out, so suddenly
[02:16.074]	Ah, the sun is warm and the soft winds ride
[02:20.966]	On the willow trees by the river side
[02:31.352]	Oh, the world is sweet, the world is wide
[02:36.877]	And she's there where the light and the darkness divide
[02:41.951]	And the steam's coming off her, she's huge and she's shy
[02:47.245]	And she steps on the moon when she paws at the sky
[02:57.529]	And she comes to his hand but she's not really tame
[03:02.921]	She longs to be lost, he longs for the same
[03:08.069]	And she'll bolt and she'll plunge through the first open pass
[03:13.338]	To roll and to feed in the sweet mountain grass
[03:23.196]	Or she'll make a break for the high plateau
[03:28.520]	Where there's nothing above and there's nothing below
[03:33.250]	And it's time for the burden, it's time for the whip
[03:38.324]	Will she walk through the flame?
[03:41.928]	Can he shoot from the hip?
[03:48.274]	So he binds himself to the galloping mare
[03:53.666]	And she binds herself to the rider there
[03:58.794]	And there is no space but there's left and right
[04:03.885]	And there is no time but there's day and night
[04:13.766]	And he leans on her neck and he whispers low"Whither thou goest,I will go"
[04:24.187]	And they turn as one and they head for the plain
[04:29.361]	No need for the whip, ah, no need for the rein
[04:39.137]	Now the clasp of this union, who fastens it tight?
[04:44.310]	Who snaps it asunder the very next night?
[04:49.752]	Some say the rider, some say the mare
[04:54.424]	Or that love's like the smoke, beyond all repair
[05:04.229]	But my darling says, "Leonard, just let it go by
[05:09.476]	That old silhouette on the great Western sky”
[05:14.451]	So I pick out a tune and they move right along
[05:19.458]	And they're gone like the smoke
[05:22.907]	And they're gone like this song

[00:15.103]	Say a prayer for the cowboy, his mare' s run away
[00:21.120]	And he' ll walk ' til he finds her, his darling, his stray
[00:27.451]	But the river' s in flood and the roads are awash
[00:32.810]	And the bridges break up in the panic of loss
[00:43.968]	And there' s nothing to follow, there' s nowhere to go
