The Horse Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]
It's time I sling the baskets off this overburdened horse
Sink my toes into the ground and set a different course
'Cause if I were here and you were there, I'd meet you in between
And not until my dying day, confess what I have seen

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
