The bright horses have broken free from the fields

They are horses of love

Their manes full of fire

They are parting the cities

Those bright burning horses

And everyone is hiding

No one makes a sound

And I'm by your side

And I'm holding your hand

Bright horses of wonder springing from your burning hand

And everyone has a heart

And it's calling for something

We're all so sick

And tired of seeing things as they are

Horses are just horses

And their manes aren't full of fire

And the fields are just fields

And there ain't no Lord

And everything is hidden

Everyone is cruel

And there's no shortage of tyrants

And no shortage of fools

And the little white shape dancing at the end of the hall

Is just a wish

That time can't dissolve at all

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh well

This world is plain to see

It don't mean we can't believe in something

And anyway

My baby's coming back now on the next train

I can hear the whistle blowing

I can hear the mighty roar

I can hear the horses

Prancing in the pastures of the Lord

Oh the train is coming

And I'm standing here to see

And it's bringing

My baby right back to me

Well there are some things

That a hard to explain

But my baby's coming home now

On the 530 train
