White Pony Lyrics - Seven Dials - Roddy Frame

Make a wish, blow them out, do it 

Maybe if they get around to it 

You'll get a dedication 

On your favorite station WLS 

You make something out of nothing 

An afternoon, sunlight and a memory 

And in the frames I see the flowering of your heart 

And mine is opening too 

Don't learn to drive 

'Cos you'll drive a car 

Over the edge of a cliff 

Learn to ride, ride a white pony 

Fly and keep the feeling in your bones 

For when the days all drag and the nights are lonely 

Schoo. where our fathers learned 

Beneath the bough of oak and elm 

Steadfast in thought and deed 

Our hearts sing hail to thee 

So we go out 

Knocking around 

Talking about the weekend 

Inside, freezing over 

Can't hide, sinking like a stone 

and all you own is an icy feeling 

So go try on the night 

The dress, the shoes, the gaze 

It's not forever 

The arc of who you are 

Is the quicksand to the stars 

And out in the night 

I hope that you are found 

Love in the lights and the sound 

Life's fast, chasing after good times 

Flies past, then you realize, sometimes 

You've got to stop and look around
