Ride A White Horse
Goldfrapp Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At the Disco
Where you buy your
Winnebago
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse
When the light turns into darkness
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse
Lend me a whole new world
All night
Feel life
When is there ever sense
To love
This world?
In the whirlpool
We'll go deeper
In this world that's
Getting cheaper
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse
I like dancing
At the disco
I want blisters
You're my leader
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse
Oh, I love this feeling
Feels like forever
Oh, I love this feeling
Feels like real
Leather
The lyrics to Goldfrapp's song "Ride a White Horse" depict a desire to be taken away from monotony and boredom by experiencing the thrill of something new and exciting. The singer wants to go dancing at a disco and ride on a white horse, using these activities as metaphors for the experience of taking risks and exploring the unknown. Through these experiences, they hope to escape the confinements of their life and find something that feels real and authentic.
The second verse of the song suggests that there is a darkness lurking behind the light, asking whether someone will turn up to explain it to us. This could be seen as a metaphor for the unpredictable nature of life and the unknown dangers that come with stepping out of your comfort zone. However, the singer is still determined to ride on a white horse and seek out new experiences despite the potential risks.
The final verse suggests that the singer is enjoying the excitement and danger of their new experiences, likening it to the feeling of "real leather." Overall, "Ride a White Horse" can be interpreted as an anthem for those seeking adventure and change, with the white horse representing the freedom and thrill that come from embracing the unknown.
