lyrics

By a rough mountain road
There's just me and the sky
And a bird going by
That’s all that I want

And there's a horse going down
His fine shape blocks the sun
And he breaks to a run
That’s all that I need

And that’s all that I want
And that’s all that I need
Just open ground
As far as eyes can see

There's a girl running too
I can just hear her call
She wears a dark shawl
And that's all I can see

And she's bringing her steed
And she's calling to him
She turns in the wind
And that's all I can hear

And she rides him so well
Oh, and they break to a run
They're moving as one
And they never return

By a rough mountain road
There's just me and the sky
And a bird going by
And that’s all that I want

That’s all that I want
That’s all that I need
Just open ground
As far as eyes can see

By a rough mountain road
There's just me and the sky
And a bird going by
And that’s all that I want

That’s all that I want
That’s all that I need
Just open ground
As far as eyes can see

Just open ground
As far as eyes can see
Just open ground
As far as eyes can see
