Flying Horses (Live) Lyrics by Dispatch

Live From The Boston Woods

2023

[Intro]
Here we go

[Verse 1]
The river of doubt gave birth to a, a beautiful stone
And in my hand, I held it and I knew I was all alone
So I picked it up and I held it to the sky
And in my reflection, I knew I was on my own (On my own, yeah)
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
Well, she was the prettiеst girl I ever saw
The stonе lay still without a flaw
The feelings I had defied the law
As I came to, I went to

[Refrain]
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, yeah
The wise old look of the old, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Then I went down to town (Then I went down to town)
To my favorite merry-go-round
To the place where magic horses fly
And you seldom see a frown, no, you don't

[Chorus]
Yeah, 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
It's all rusty

[Verse 2]
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

[Refrain]
And 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 word, they'll just look at you
With that wise old look of the old, yeah
The wise old look of the old, yeah

[Chorus]
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
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
It's all rusty now

[Outro]
Well, alright
Thanks very much
I'd like to say hello to my parents and to, uh, all the folks from my hometown of Sherborn, Massachusetts
What's up, y'all?
Mama Swoop
Mama Swoop in the house
