Ghost of a Horse Lyrics

Running around
Wearing a gown
My love hit the ground
And soon, I caught up
Needles and pins
Where have I been
My heart says let me back in
But my chest wants to cave in

Oh take, take, please take
Oh take these words
Out of my mouth
Mary Magdalene
Take this cross off my back

A ghost of a horse
Follows me to the end
Oh, the end of the barn
Where my faith
Is buried deep in the ground

I lay into the piano
With the pedal pushed down
It rings and it pounds and my heart
Oh it sweeps the ground
Oh, violin strings they break
Oh break to the sound
Of horse bones that carried me
Oh into this town

Oh take, please take
Oh take me please
Away from this crowd
And I will show you
The beauty of silence in sound

But where, oh where
Is my deep barking hound
'Cause the beauty of my love is unfound
And where oh there
In the silence now
Oh, I wave the boats away from me now
And I saw the ash poured off the bow

But where have I been
And what did I do
I let love in
Now I'm left
With my friend old blue

But where have I been
And what did I do
I let love in
Now I'm left
With my friend old blue
