White Horse (Acoustic)

(album: Living Room Worktapes - 2018)

I was waiting on my chariot
To steal me away
Wishing on stars and fairy dust
And running low on faith

Yeah, the way that I saw it
My true love would come calling
Tossing pebbles at the window of my ivory tower
I was looking for roses
Oh, but how would I know that
Love's a little closer to a wildflower?

I've been waiting on a white horse
To take me away on a sunset ride
But you showed up on a dark horse
At the Cinderella midnight, just in time
Maybe not the way I was dreaming of
But you rode in, and won my love
And now I'm finally on the right course
Who needs a white horse?

I like the way you came out of the blue
And took me by surprise
You make me feel like I'm a mystery to you
And not some kind of prize

I've been waiting on a white horse
To take me away on a sunset ride
But you showed up on a dark horse
At the Cinderella midnight, just in time
Maybe not the way I was dreaming of
But you rode in, and won my love
And now I'm finally on the right course
Yeah, who needs a white horse?

The way that I saw it
My true love would come calling
Tossing pebbles at the window of my ivory tower
I was looking for roses
Oh, but how would I know that
Love's a little closer to a wildflower?
To a wildflower

I've been waiting on a white horse
Oh, to take me away on a sunset ride
But you showed up on a dark horse
At the Cinderella midnight, just in time
Maybe not the way I was dreaming of
But you rode in, and won my love
And now I'm finally on the right course
Yeah, who needs a white horse?
