One day I believe that we'll be carried away by pretty horses
And the night will open wide
We'll stretch our arms and float out in her river
And your life would be my light

And in our love we find forgiveness
And in our fear we learn to see
And in my chains I saw us running
Free as all the pretty horses in my dreams

Maybe it was planned when the angels spoke your name into existence
That our hearts would be entwined
And only time and life and a little distance
Until I could be with you

And in our love we find forgiveness
And in our fear we learn to see
And in my chains I saw us running
Free as all the pretty horses in my dreams

And in this life change comes slowly
There is time to be redeemed
Any lie you told can be forgiven
If you love enough to believe
If you love enough to believe

And we don't mind the weight we carry
We don't talk about no wasted years
And I'll be right here to lean on if the living gets too heavy
And the darkness comes a-snappin' at your heels

We don't mind the weight we carry
We don't talk about no wasted years
And I'll come running fast as lightning if the living gets too heavy
Just like all the pretty horses in our dreams
