Daryl Braithwaite The Horses lyrics

We will fly way up high
Where the cold wind blows
Or in the sun laughing having fun
With the people that she knows

And if the situation should keep us separated
You know the world won't fall apart
And you will free the beautiful bird
That's caught inside your heart

Can't you hear her? Oh, she cries so loud
Casts her wild note over water and cloud

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
We'll be riding on the horses, yeah, yeah
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

You will grow and until you go
I'll be right there by your side
And even then whisper the wind
And she will carry up your ride

I hear all the people of the world

In one bird's lonely cry
See them trying every way they know how
To make their spirit fly

Can't you see him? He's down on the ground
He has a broken wing, looking all around

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
You'll be riding on the horses, yeah, yeah
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

Pick you up darlin' if you fall
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, little girl
Because I was young myself not so long ago

And when I was young
When I was young
And when I was young
Oh, I was a wild wild one
