Lyrics Christy Moore

Christy Moore

Ride On

True you ride the finest horse I've ever seen

Standing sixteen one or two with eyes wild and green

You ride the horse so well hands light to the touch

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

When you ride into the night without a trace behind

Run your claw along my gut, one last time

I turn to face an empty space, where you used to lie

And look for a spark that lights the night

Through a teardrop in my eye

Ride on, see you

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to
