Ride Towards Home

With feet of clapping thunder
A breath in the desert breeze
With snow-white fur of winter
As thick as forest trees

Deep ocean eyes reflecting
An ancient wisdom there
It carries me correcting
A load too large to bear

[Chorus]
Wild horses please carry me
To a beauty that will always be
To a world I can call on my own
In an everlasting ride towards home

Like waterfalls and rivers
Flowing from you as we chase
What’s always been forever
That time cannot erase

Dusty sun shadows upon you
The rock and the fire within
You are the earth, and the world that carries me
To forgotten, places I’ve been

[Chorus]
Wild horses please carry me
To a beauty that will always be
To a world I can call on my own
In an everlasting ride towards home

Feathered manes and war stained saddles
Pulling carts for wounded men
Braided leather, roping cattle
Plowing fields for the cotton gin

We thank you for your patience
In mankind’s long pursuit
Of happiness and freedom
Til then we borrow it from you.

[Chorus]
Wild horses please carry me
To a beauty that will always be
To a world I can call on my own
In an everlasting ride towards home
