(Michael Timmins)

The money would be pretty good
3
if a quart of milk were still a dollar
4
or even if a quart of milk were still a quart
5
And the hours, well, I don't mind
6
how they creep on by like an old love of mine
7
it's the years that simply disappear that are doing me in
8
Guess I married too young,
9
yeah, nineteen was just too young,
10
but sometimes you meet someone
11
and your guts just burn
12
It's not that I don't love him anymore
13
it's just that when I hear him
14
coming through that front door
15
my heart doesn't race like it did once before
16
But I've got a horse out in the country
17
I get to see him every second Sunday
18
He comes when I call him,
19
yeah, he knows his name
20
One day I'll saddle up
21
and the two of us will ride away
22
This weather I could almost stand
23
if the sun would shine a little brighter
24
or even if the sun would shine at all
25
But lately it just seems to me
26
that this life has lost its mystery
27
and these cold fall mornings seem to bite
28
just a little bit harder
29
And all my friends have settled down
30
become their mothers and their fathers
31
without a sound
32
Except for Cathy,
33
she bought a one-way subway ticket
34
and left us all behind
35
But I've got a horse out in the country
36
I get to see him every second Sunday
37
He comes when I call him,
38
yeah, he knows his name
39
One day I'll saddle up
40
and the two of us will ride away
41
This town wouldn't be so bad
42
if a girl could trust her instincts
43
or even if a girl could trust a boy
