WHITE HORSE

(Copyright © 2007 Jim Clark)

And the Doc he came by
High on a fine white horse
Like a Charleston gentleman
He came by
The Doc he came by
The Doc he came by

And me, I had the voice
And you, you had the hands
And the Doc had fire and ice
To give away
And all his talk and plans
And all his talk and plans

Chorus
And on the dark horse of ice you will ride
To see the horse of fire go down in the flood
It’s the white horse of desire that pulls
The broke down cart of your blood

Here in the warmth of July
Staring through trees at the sky
Reading the words of a beautiful lie
A beautiful lie
A beautiful lie

And yes I am a dreamer
And asleep in my own time
A man on a horse is a dream or a sign
A dream or a sign
A dream or a sign

Chorus

(Repeat first verse)
