One Of A Kind Lyrics
I've got this feeling deep inside, But what it is, I don't know. My vision starts to change, My mind gets filled with rage, I raise my fists up to the sky. (what do ya see?) The fear I see when I look in your eyes, Makes you believe I'm one of a

In the early dawn
A stallion white
Prances the hills
In the morning light
His bridle is painted
With thunder and gold
Orchids and dragons
Pale knights of old
Hes the horse of the ages past.
And now the children run
To see the stallion on the hill
Bringing bags of apples
And of clover they have filled
And the white horse
Tells his stories
Of the days
Now passed and gone
And the children stand
A-wondering
Believing
Every song
How brightly glows the past.

When the sun is highI got my first real six-string Bought it at the five-and-dime Played it till my fingers bled It was the summer of '69 Me and some guys from school Had a band and we tried real hard Jimmy quit and Jody got married I shoulda known we'd never get fa
Comes a mare so red
A-trampling the graves
Of the living and dead
Her mantle is heavy
With mirrors and glass
All is reflected
When the red mare does pass
Shes the horse of the here and now.
And now there is confusion
mongst the children on the hill
They cling to one another
And no longer can be still
While the red mares
Voice is trembling
With a rare and
Mighty call
The children
Start remembering
The bearers
And the the pall
And though their
Feeling the fire Under my feet I was a liar You were a cheat Playing with knives we were cut close to home Close to the bone You're so alone Something to have Something to hold Something to share So i've been told Deep in your eyes
Are reflecting
In the glass
And though the sun
Shines down upon them
They are frightened
In the grass
How stark is the here and now.
When the night does fall
Comes a stallion black
So proud and tall
He never looks back
He wears him no emaralds
Silver or gold
Not even a covering
To keep him from cold
Hes the horse of the years to come.
And I will get me down
Before this steed upon my knees
And sing to him the sorrows
Of a thousand centuries

Hold Me Down Lyrics
So I guess I must have just been dreaming When I thought I heard myself say no Anyway it looks like no one heard me so here I go Cause when you're in the company of strangers Or the strangers you call friends You know before you start just how it's going to end When t

Now will scatter
As their mothers
Call them home
For the sadness
Of the evening horse
No child
Has ever known
And I will
Hang about him
A bell thats
Never rung
And thank him
For the many words
Which from his throat
Have never sprung
And Ill thank God
And all the angels
That the stallion
Of the evening
The black horse
Of the future
Comes to earth but has no tongue.
