Live Like Horses  Lyrics

Live Like Horses  Lyrics

I can't control this flesh and blood

That's wrapped around my bones

It moves beneath me like a river

Into the great unknown


I stepped onto the moving stairs

Before I could tie my shoes

Pried a harp out the fingers of a renegade

Who lived and died the blues


And his promise made was never clear

It just carved itself in me

All I saw was frost inside my head

On the night he said to me


Someday we'll live like horses

Free rein from your old iron fences

There's more ways than one to regain your senses

Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses


We're the victims of the heartbreak

That kept us short of breath

Trapped above these bloodless streets

Without a safety net


I stood in line to join the trial

One more customer of fate

Claimed a spoke in the wheel of the wagon train

On the road to the golden gate


On the flat cracked desert I jumped ship

It just made sense to me

I've spent too long in the belly of the beast

And now I shall be free


Duet with Luciano Pavarotti:


I can't control this flesh and blood


That's wrapped around my bones


It moves beneath me like a river


Into the great unknown



I stepped onto the moving stairs


Before I could tie my shoes


Pried a harp out the fingers of a renegade


Who lived and died the blues



La promessa non fu chiara


S'erra solo impressa in me


Vidi solo il gelo dentro me


Quella notte dise a me



Vivrem comme cavalli


Liberi dai recinti di ferro


Che piu non voglio


Rinnegare i sensi


Su dai fuggiam


Vivrem comme cavalli



We're the victims of the heartbreak


That kept us short of breath


Trapped above these bloodless streets


Without a safety net



I stood in line to join the trial


One more customer of fate


Claimed a spoke in the wheel of the wagon train


On the road to the golden gate



Nel deserto la nave abbandonai


Per me aveva senso


Son stato troppo tempo nella bestia


Ed ora saro libero



Someday We'll live like horses


Free reign from your old iron fences


There's more ways than one to regain your senses


Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses


Someday



Liberi dai ricenti di ferro


Che piu non voglio


Rinnegare i sensi


Su dai fuggiam


Vivrem comme cavalli
