Ballad Of A Runaway Horse (2007 Remastered Album Version) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)[00:00:00]

Say a prayer for the cowgirl her horse ran away[00:00:04]

She'll walk 'til she finds him her darlin' her stray[00:00:10]

But the river's in flood and the roads are awash[00:00:15]

And the bridges break up in the panic of loss[00:00:21]

And there's nothin' to follow nowhere to go[00:00:31]

He's gone like the summer gone like the snow[00:00:36]

And the crickets are breaking her heart with their song[00:00:41]

As the day caves in and the night is all wrong[00:00:46]

Did she dream it was he who went galloping past[00:00:57]

And bent down the fern broke open the grass[00:01:02]

And printed the mud with the well hammered shoe[00:01:07]

That she nailed to his speed in the dreams of her youth[00:01:12]

And although he goes grazin' a minute away[00:01:22]

She tracks him all night she tracks him all day[00:01:28]

And she's blind to his presence except to compare[00:01:33]

Her injury here with his punishment there[00:01:38]

Then at home on a branch on a high stream[00:01:49]

A songbird sings out so suddenly[00:01:54]

And the sun is warm and the soft winds ride[00:01:59]

On a willow tree by the riverside[00:02:04]

An the world is sweet and world is wide[00:02:14]

And he's there where the light and the darkness divide[00:02:19]

And the steam's comin' off him he's huge and he's shy[00:02:25]

And he steps on the moon when he paws at the sky[00:02:30]

And he comes to her hand but he's nor really tame[00:02:40]

He longs to be lost she longs for the same[00:02:45]

And he'll bolt and he'll plunge thru the first open pass[00:02:51]

To roll and to feed in the sweet mountain grass[00:02:56]

Or he'll make a break for the high plateau[00:03:06]

Where there's nothing above and noting below[00:03:12]

It's time for their burden the whip and the spur[00:03:17]

Will she ride with him if we are[00:03:22]

Or will he ride with her[00:03:26]

So she binds herself to her galloping steed[00:03:32]

And he binds himself to the woman in need[00:03:38]

And there is no space just left and right[00:03:42]

And there is no time but there is day and night[00:03:48]

Then she learns on his neck and whispers low[00:03:58]

Whither thou goest I will go[00:04:04]

And they turn as one[00:04:08]

And they head for the plain[00:04:11]

No need for the whip oh no need for the rain[00:04:13]

Now the clasp of this union who fastens it tight[00:04:24]

Who snaps it asunder the very next night[00:04:29]

Some say it's him some say it's her[00:04:35]

Some say love's like smoke beyond all repair[00:04:39]

So my darlin' my darlin' just let go by[00:04:50]

That old silhouette on the great western sky[00:04:55]

And I'll pick out a tune and they'll move right along[00:05:01]

And they're gone like smoke[00:05:06]

And they're gone like this song[00:05:10]

Say a prayer for the cowgirl[00:05:16]
