Just a little bit harder
And the two of us will ride away
One day I'll saddle up
Oh yeah, I get to see him every second Sunday
He comes when I call him
But lately it just seems to me
If a girl could trust her instincts
Become their mothers and their fathers
Or even if the sun would shine at all
This weather I could almost stand
And the hours, well, I don't mind
If the sun would shine a little brighter
It's just that when I hear him coming through that front door
He comes when I call him
And the two of us will ride away
Or even if a quart of milk were still a quart
But I've got a horse out in the country
She got a one-way subway ticket
My heart doesn't race like it did once before
It's the years that simply disappear that are doing me in
It's not that I don't love him anymore
Without a sound, except for Cathy
How they creep on by like an old love of mine
And these cold fall mornings seem to bite
One day I'll saddle up
But I've got a horse out in the country
And left us all behind
But sometimes you meet someone and your guts just burn
Yeah, he knows his name
That this life has lost it's mystery
Oh yeah, I get to see him every second Sunday
Yeah, he knows his name
Yeah, nineteen was just too young
Guess I married too young
This town wouldn't be so bad
And all my friends have settled down
