Roddy Frame - White Pony lyrics

Make a wish, blow them out, do it Maybe if they get around to it You'll get a dedication On your favorite station WLS You make something out of nothing An afternoon, sunlight and a memory And in the frames I see the flowering of your heart And mine is opening too Don't learn to drive 'Cos you'll drive a car Over the edge of a cliff Learn to ride, ride a white pony Fly and keep the feeling in your bones For when the days all drag and the nights are lonely Schoo. where our fathers learned Beneath the bough of oak and elm Steadfast in thought and deed Our hearts sing hail to thee So we go out Knocking around Talking about the weekend Inside, freezing over Can't hide, sinking like a stone and all you own is an icy feeling So go try on the night The dress, the shoes, the gaze It's not forever The arc of who you are Is the quicksand to the stars And out in the night I hope that you are found Love in the lights and the sound Life's fast, chasing after good times Flies past, then you realize, sometimes You've got to stop and look around
