High Horse

by The The

I was thinking about your love
You was only hiding, like the Lord above!
Looking down like an angel upon my lonely life
And no matter the angle, I want you to be my wife
I was dreaming you understood!
But you was thinking you wished you would!
Looking down from your high horse
Like I didn’t matter, of course
And what they say at the funeral is often in remorse
And you was thinking that I was sleeping in my thoughts
So lonely, my tears falling down like rain
Pull the string for a cheap prize! Baby, it’s no surprise!
Looking down from your high horse listening to my lullaby
I was thinking that the world of sin
A sinking feeling like I’m falling in love again
Looking down from your high horse, like I didn’t matter, of course
Say hello at my funeral. I’ll be right there on time
You could only be my love
Fading like the stars above
You could only be my love
Love!
Love!

High Horse

Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
And get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
Moonlit shadow, she starts a trippin' firelight
Jumpin' the trees lyin' across the right of way
Silvery mornin' it glistens down the valley
But she don't stop 'til we ride the night away
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
Get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
Blonde braids tangle at the misty break of mornin'
Catchin' light through a dusty window pane
Lost in lust, in denial of the warnin'
She digs her heels in this stallion's flank again
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
Get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
Get up on your high horse, woman
You paid the price, you get to play
Get up on your high horse, woman
You're gonna ride to the break of day
To the break of day
To the break of day
To the break of day
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
Get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
Get up on your high horse, woman
You paid the price, you get to play
Get up on your high horse, woman
You're gonna ride to the break of day
