[Intro] [Verse 1] Small town girl Coca Cola grin honeysuckle skin Born beneath the ready sign of a strawberry moon Small town girl shows up for her friends crazy about The Bends I was there when she first put away childish things [Chorus] We had spring in our heels Unwavering forces headfirst into the unknown Like runaway horses in a fever till the end And every step is a silver prayer in the face of a hard wind [Verse 2] You traded school for weddings rings and rent Invitations sent of you and him by a barn out on the edge of town Small town girl you put your dreams on ice never thinking twice Some you’ll surely forget and some that you never will [Chorus] There was a promise in our stride But we changed courses headfirst into the unknown Like runaway horses in a fever till the end And every step is a silver prayer in the face of a hard wind Like runaway horses it’s a long way back home again When every step is a silver prayer in the face of a hard wind
