It's like a photograph from the other side of the world
There on Rocking Horse Road for you
Walkin' down Rocking Horse Road, it's so peaceful
All the way down, all the way down
I know I must not look back 'cause part of me is waiting still
I said, "I want you only", and then I left you alone
And tucks, "The Suburban Assassin", underneath his arm
In your stocking feet and your sticky tape
Well, you were the one that made your escape
Walkin' down Rocking Horse Road, getting lost
Not numbers on the gateposts
I stood there stupefied, I thought I recognized
In a little dream house made for two
The cemetery gardens, there are names
And the eyes in the curtain follow you like a smirking ghost
Shot through Vaseline, he picks up the paper from the lawn
All the way down, all the way down
He smiles weakly and turns away, I know I'll never come to harm
All the way down
Cryin' on Rocking Horse Road or somewhere quite like it
