Don't cry for the horses that life has set free,
A million bay horses forever to be.
Don't cry for the horses now in Gods hands
As they dance and they prance in a heavenly land.
They were ours as a gift, but never to keep,
As they closed their eyes forever to sleep.
Their spirits unbound, on wings they can fly,
A million bay horses against the blue sky.
Look up into heaven; you'll see them above,
The horse that we lost, the horse that we loved.
Manes and tails flowing, they gallop through time,
They were never yours, they were never mine.
Don't cry for the horses; they'll be back someday.
When our time is gone, they will show us the way.
Do you hear that soft nicker close to your ear?
Don't cry for the horses; love the ones that are here!
