Mercury Rev - Born Horses Lyrics

I had a dream we were born horses
And not human beings
With more time to run
And less time for things
Lit by the lightning
Barefoot and wild
Side by side against the night
Against the wind and horizon
While our manes turn from golden to white

I dreamed we were born horses
Waiting for wings
But with more sky inside us
Than most human beings
Bigger than our bodies
Weightless in our minds
Made of whatever it is in horses that runs
And whatever it is in birds that flies

I had this dream we were born horses
Who chose human things
Like streetlights for stars
And plains of concrete
I dreamed we were born horses
Floating away from the present
Like two "Let go" balloons

And no one could catch us
And no one could break us
And no one could own us
And no one could tame us
And no one could tame me
No one, and I do mean no one
No one but you
I dreamed we were born horses
I dreamed we were born horses
