Lame Horses Lyrics by Mark Manthei

Lame Horses
Come ride with me this sunny day and be pleasantly surprised
For I have wandered in these pastures just to meet up with your eyes
There was never any doubt that you would someday get to fill this place
With the wild and broken majesty that was once written on your face
Cause you have broken every rule............And cast out every fool
That drove these pastures with you...........And taught you something new
So hold on to these spaces......................Keep them closer than before
While you run the valley ragged..................Offering us more
And a chance to be free and easy
Chorus
I only need some mane that I can hold on to
While I run these races with all the lame horses
I'm not broken down yet I wouldn't place my bet until you
Hear the thunder rolling under all the lame horses
So take a good look inside of any horse you ride
To find the dusty trail of angels inj all the lame horses
Then just keep riding on over that hill and fill up empty
Wide open spaces with all the lame horses
I cleaned up this twisted wreckage that was once a broken soul
The heart was pounding nowhere there was nothing down below
I was led down to your drinking hole and lazed beneath your sun
Now were heading out to green fields that will feed us as we run
Cause you have broken every rule..........And cast out every fool
That ran these pastures with you...........And taught you something new
So hold on to these spaces......................Keep them closer than before
While you run the valley ragged..........Offering us more
Than a chance to be free and easy
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
There's no where in life...............................That says you have to rely
On the company you keep...............................Until there comes a time
When the warm hands ........................................That will hold you
Just go cold by your side and together you will ride lame horses
All the lame horses and get a chance to be free
