Template:Rocking Horse Road

The chains from the bridle and the reins fell from my hands

And the engines are idle and the ship sails on dry land

I stood there stupefied, I thought I recognised

Walking down Rocking Horse Road - getting lost

Shot through Vaseline, he picks up the paper from the lawn

And tucks "The Suburban Assassin" underneath his arm

He smiles weakly and turns away

I know I'll never come to harm

Walking down Rocking Horse Road - it's so peaceful

It's like a photograph

From the other side of the world

I said "I want you only"

And then I left you alone

Crying on Rocking Horse Road - or somewhere quite like it

The cemetery gardens, there are names, not numbers, on the gateposts

And the eyes in the curtain follow you like a smirking ghost

I know I must not look back

'Cos part of me is waiting still

There on Rocking Horse Road for you

In a little dreamhouse made for two

Well you were the one who made your escape

In your stocking feet and your sticky tape

All the way down

All the way down

All the way down

All the way down

All the way down

Walking down Rocking Horse

Rocking Rocking Rocking Horse...
