This song is narrated from the perspective of the horse, rather than the rider. It describes how they are riding to a destination they can never reach.
Horse and Rider Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Our breath mingles in the stable gloom
As you attire me by a spoke of moon
Bridle across my face and bit between my teeth
Through the mews, a-crackle with frost
Led by the reins down shadowy backlanes
[Chorus 1]
From the village, still at-dream we fly
Cow silhouettes and starlit molehills sailing by
[Verse 2]
Leaving behind a rose horizon, frozen in place
You lean forward in the saddle to embrace
I wonder if my lady knows there’s no way back
To the world from which she was born?
And that the only way out
Is forward and down?
[Chorus 2]
Along weedburst motorways we tear
Past the tangled silence of our emptied cities
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus 3]
Over unseen churning seas we go
Neverending passage through the cold and dark
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
