Rocking Horse Road — текст песни (Elvis Costello)





The chains from the bridle and the reins fell from my hands

The engines are idle and the ship sails on dry land

I stood there stupefied, I thought I recognized

Walking down rocking horse road, getting lost



Shot through vaseline, he picks up the paper from the lawn

And tucks "the suburban assassin" underneath his arm

He smiles weakly and turns away

I know youll never come to harm

Walking down rocking horse road, its so peaceful



Its like a photograph

From the other side of the world

I said "i want you only"

And then I left you alone

Crying on rocking horse road, or somewhere quite like it



The cemetery gardens, there are names not numbers on the gateposts

And the eyes in the curtain follow you like a smirking ghost

I know I must not look back

cause part of me is waiting still



There on rocking horse road for you

In a little dream house made for two

Well you were the one that made your escape

In your stocking feet and your sticky tape



All the way down [repeat to fade]
