lyrics

Theres a white horse grazing as we head down the highway
The oak trees are seasoned and grey
The skyline is held by high clouds and horizons
They’re dreaming of the colors their down on the plains
They say that its gone but it goes on forever
If not you surely someone feels the pain
It’s better we know that the truth ain’t no diamond
Its hard and it cuts but the shine ain’t the same
I’m somewhere between heartache and the heartland
Both seem distant in some kind of way
I don’t mind forgetting it spares me the trouble
It’s all that remembrin’ that brings back the pain
They say that its gone but it goes on forever
If not you surely someone feels the pain
Its better we know that the truth ain’t no diamond
Its hard and it cuts but the shine ain’t the same
I’m just passing through to look up an old friend
To find that she’s gone away
I hope that she knows that I still remember
Her kind morning eyes when we would wake
She’d say that its gone but it goes on forever
If not her surely someone feels the pain
Its better we know that the truth ain’t no diamond
Its hard and it cuts but the shine ain’t the same
Oh that white horse, its grazing, as we head down that highway
The oak trees are seasoned and grey
The skyline is held by high clouds and horizons
They’re dreaming of the colors their down on the plains
