Runaway Horses II

Small town girl, Coca Cola grin, honeysuckle skin
Born beneath the ready sign of a strawberry Moon

Small town girl shows up for her friends crazy about The Bends
I was there when she first put away childish things
We had spring in our heels, unwavering forces, headfirst into the unknown

Like runaway horses in a fever till the end
And every step is a silver prayer in the face of a hard wind

You traded school for weddings rings and rent
Invitations sent of you and him by a barn out on the edge of town

Small town girl, you put your dreams on ice, never thinking twice
Some you'll surely forget and some that you never will

There was a promise in our stride, but we changed courses headfirst into the unknown

Like runaway horses in a fever till the end
And every step is a silver prayer in the face of a hard wind
Like runaway horses, it's a long way back home again
When every step is a silver prayer in the face of a hard wind
