Flying Horses — текст песни (dispatch)

the river of doubt gave birth to a beautiful stone
and in my hands I held it and I knew I was on my own
so I picked it up and held it to the sky
and in my reflection. I knew I was all alone
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
she was the prettiest girl I ever saw
the stone lay still without a flaw
the feelings I had defied the law
as I came to, 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
then I went to down to town
to my favorite merry-go-round
to the place where magic horses fly
and you seldom see a frown

[CHORUS]
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

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 workd they`ll just look at you
with that wise look of the old

[CHORUS]
