You were new in town I was nineteen, and sparks flew
They called us crazy behind our backs
"Romantic fools", we just let them laugh, because we knew
We may be lonely down the line
And I won't let them make up my mind
My money's riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one
And it's true color's gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run, yeah
Stars are brighter in a desert sky
No need to wonder or justify where this will lead
I wear your locket, our picture's inside
Inscription says, "The joy's in the ride", and I believe
Is something worth this kind of fight
'Cause love knows no patience, no yeah
You can't please everyone all the time
My money's riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one
And it's true color's gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run
Together baby I know, we can be free, be free
My money's riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one
And it's true color's gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let it run baby
My money's riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one
And it's true color's gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run
You were new in town, I was nineteen
Oh babe in the summer time, yeah, yeah More from Amanda Marshall
