Joseph Paul - "Horses" (live original song)

http://www.josephpaul.org

This is a new song about riding horses (one of my personal favorite activites). Blue-eyed grass, by the way, is a wild flower that grows in Oklahoma. It has six brilliantly blue or purple petals surrounding a yellow center.

Horses

© 2009 Joseph Paul Music

I know this place
On a southern ridge
With blue-eyed grass stretching without end
But you can't get there on foot, no
So we'll saddle up
Brush out there manes
And ride side by side through the tall grass babe, and I'll show you
As vast as all these prairies stretch
Is as vast as my love for you

Chorus:
When we ride our horses
On the jagged plain
There's no one else I'd rather ride beside babe
Just let the horses take us away

The beat of hooves
So loudly blares
Summer winds rushing through your hair darling
Sunlight plays off your white skin
At the lake shore
We lead them down to water
Watch them splashing there as the day grows hotter
Entangled in each other's arms
Taste the cold wet warmth of your smiling lips

Chorus 2:
When we ride our horses
Beneath the twilight moon
When we ride our horses
I know I won't be home any time soon

As the night falls we loosen the reigns up
Gallop harder now over the night grass
The sight of you like this is all that I need now
To have you like this is all I could ask

(Chorus)

Expressively written and sung. You make it easy for the listener to go along with here. I love when a song does that.

With that voice of yours, you could sing about goats and I'd Love it!!---but you sang about horses and it was BEAUTIFUL!! What girl wouldn't be flattered? You know what...something hit me, just as you started singing in this video...you have a Broadway voice....have you ever done plays..ever considered it...because you are very expressive vocally...absolutely beautiful....you're able to capture and hold the attention...which is rare. Great playing too!!

Peace,
