Hooves Of The Horses Lyrics - Singles - Wylie And Wild West

Words William H.Ogilvie/ Music W. Gustafson (Two Medicine Music, BMI) 

 

The hooves of the horses O' witching and sweet 

Is the music earth steals from the iron-shod feet 

No whisper of lover, no trilling of bird 

Can stir me as hooves of the horses have stirred 

 

They spurn disappointment and trample despair 

And drown with their drum beats the challenge of care 

With scarlet and silk for their banners above 

They are swifter than fortune and sweeter than love 

 

On the wings of the morning they gather and fly 

In the hush of the night-time I hear them go by 

The horses of memory thundering through 

With flashing white fetlocks all wet with the dew
