Barr Brothers - Let There Be Horses Lyrics

Mary,
You would not be the woman that you are
If someone could mend your troubled heart
That would be easier
but that would be wrong

Water,
Sometimes I think my cup might overfill
As if God and the Devil had struck a deal
Sayin’ you can have this one
after I’m done

Oh, let me hear music
Like you hear music
Like you were just born
Oh, let there be horses
Let there be danger
Let there be one song
A song for the little man
A song for his wife and his two charmed children’s children and his noble life

People,
Want love but have little for themselves
They pray for a stranger to lift their veil
That would be everyone
That would be us

Children,
That would never keep us from itself
We’ll dance through a window
We reap and yell
But you are a daughter
You are a son

Oh, let me have patience
Like you have patience
Like you were old
Oh, let there be horses
There will be danger
Let there be one song
A song for the little man
A song for his wife and his two charmed children’s children and his noble life
