Forward Only Forward

I'll make it to town, but not quick enough
Well, a darkness is upon me
And I fear it won't be long before I fall

I'm coming down with something, I been sure
Well, I cannot hear you outside
And the cold creeps under doors, we'll assume

Save me, oh Rainbow
Won't you take me somewhere far away
I cannot stand the sunlight;
These ponies are wasting their lives away

Well, I sit before these mighty skies
And I know not what it means when
I look into your eyes, but it's there
And it's forward calling over yonder
And it's strong, and it scares me
When my lust leads me to wander
For my life lays in the hills
And trees were planted by my father

Save me, oh Rainbow
Won't you take me somewhere far away
I cannot stand the sunlight;
These ponies are wasting their lives away
