White Horse
Sarah McLeod Lyrics

You don't need a white horse
You don't need anyone else to save you

To steer you back onto course you
To show you the right path

Know what to do and what's expected of you
You know your responsibilities and duties

This time you walk the longest line
You will have to face the hardest challenges

You paint it right
You handle situations perfectly

With every single thing you do
In every action you take

Wish I could say
I wish I could say the same

The same for those surrounding you
Others should do things as perfectly as you

We never heard it creeping
We did not notice the bad things happening

Ah so silently
Very quietly

What happened yesterday's a mystery to me
I don't understand what happened yesterday

Was that a voice?
Did you hear something?

You thought that you were alone
You believed you were by yourself

Truth is she never left when
In reality, she did not really leave

She said she went home
She told you that she went home

And you've been calming down
You have been getting less angry

Shifting from your crew
Moving away from your friends

She's been watching you and
She has been observing you and

Knows your every move
She knows what you are doing

You think about it
You reflect on it

And just how it all began
And how everything started

Some people never learn
Some people don't improve

And don't quite understand
And don't really comprehend

It's true you've been away
You have been gone for a while

But not for all that long
But not for a very long time

Now all the protocols
Now all the rules and procedures

Suddenly it's gone
Suddenly disappeared

So now you're looking at it
So now you are examining it

Oh so differently
In a completely new way

Your voice is changing
You are speaking differently now

And her eyes, they cannot see
And she does not understand what is happening

So don't you turn away
Don't ignore the situation

There's nowhere else to go
There is no other option

She thinks she's winning but there's
She believes she is succeeding, but

Something she don't know
There is something she does not understand

You're gone and I'll go wait on you
You are gone and I will wait for you

Grown up oh so strong it
Grown up and very strong

Happened so fast and baby, it didn't last
It happened quickly and did not last long

Your strength has built
You have become stronger

With every single day you're back
Since you have returned every day has improved

Since that she didn't take this
Since she did not dim your shine

Sparkle out from your eye
The twinkle in your eye

You'd notice where to stand
You would know where to stand

And where to waltz away
And where to leave without confrontation

You're growing confidence
Your self-assurance is increasing

Is shining from within
Is emanating outwardly

You've got control
You have gained control

(She will see the damage done)
(She will see the consequences of her actions)

She will see the damage she's done
She will understand the harm she has caused

You're gone and I'll go wait on you
You are gone and I will wait for you

Grown up oh so strong it
Grown up and very strong

Happened so fast and baby, it didn't last
It happened quickly and did not last long

This time you walk the longest line
This time your journey will be the most difficult
