Dark Horse

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thank you for all the moments that you gave me
For all those feelings that escape me
And live on and on
In your rebirth and your beautiful song

That's something I cant hold but I can feel
No-one in this world can steal
Those moments away
A thousand years from yesterday

Cos there are so many little things
That people will remember you for
But I see the biggest thing
It's the love that you gave to us all when you forgive and you forget in this world

Well I am so lucky you came at the right time
Burning so brightly within you without you
Something will take us to preach only good times
And Dark Horse can ride some more
Cos God only knows for sure

We can sleep so sweet
We can sleep so sweet
We can sleep so sweet
We can sleep so sweet

But there are so many little things that people will rember you for
But I see the biggest thing
It's the love that you gave to us all when you forgave and you forget in this world

Well I am so lucky you called at the right time
Burning so brightly within you without you
Something will shape us to preach only good times
And Dark Horse can ride some more
Cos God only knows for sure





We can sleep so sweet
