In your father's hands, He holds the low sun In the sky, for a while And three diamonds shine so bright in his eyes They cut straight into your heart Every second, like a shooting star Leaves the trail, of the fairytale Walking forwards, reaching backwards The way things were, the way things are to be And the love you know, is quiet and still The memories, torn into the wind All the colours that you are, so frozen and blurred Start to thaw And you are Another chance, another day Till he drags his shadow across the sand And proudly mounts his horse A heart full of memories A million bright hellos He lays the sun, across the diamonds A blinding light that lays the path He tips his hot, and rides Wild west heroes, they change the world
They keep it safe As they ride the ice between the stars They leave a trail for us You got it right mate, so right And the town remains But it's not the same anymore You built the walls so strong They'll never fall down So hats off to you, beautiful friend Wild west heroes, they change the world They make it shine As you ride the ice, between the heavens Leave a trail for us They'll never fall down Wild west heroes, they change the world And keep it safe As they ride the ice, they leave a trail For us to follow Wild west heroes, they change the world They make it shine As you ride the ice, between the heavens Leave a trail for us You took it away
