I see the earth below
me, from a cloudless sky
I think of what I've lost and what I'm never
going to find
In spite of all the love around me, I grieve
for what I leave behind
I see a shadow moving
along the Great Divide
A herd of appaloosas running down the other
side
Changing everything inside me, bringing so
much back alive
Painted
pony, long may you run
How I only wish I was young
Heading out on the wide open plains
where I was born
But I'm up in this fathomless air
You're below on the ground way down
there
For as long as you run you will keep my
hope alive
How I love it when wild horses run
I walk along the
river, watch the water flow
I wonder if I swim her, will she ever let me
go?
Or will she hold me like a lover? Make me
part of her own soul?
And then a Great
Blue Heron in the shallow reeds
Opens up his wings and climbs to heaven over
me
It's hard to see a circling heron and say
you still do not believe
Painted
pony, long may you run
How I only wish I was young
Heading out on the wide open plains
where I was born
But I'm up in this fathomless air
You're below on the ground way down
there
For as long as you run you will keep my
hope alive
How I love it when wild horses run
Did you ever
have a moment flow like love around you
And just heal everything?
You look around, cannot define it
Nothing can describe the rousing beauty
in this place!
How I love it, when wild herons fly
Painted pony, long may you run
How I only wish I was young
Heading out on the wide open plains
where I was born
But I'm up in this fathomless air
You're below on the ground way down
there
For as long as you run you will keep my
hope alive
How I love it when wild horses run
