Slidin' down the canyon on the Black Baldy Stallion Through the rocks and the ridges of the cold dark night Shinin' like a diamond from the belt of Orion Is it your imagination, is the end in sight? From the top of the mountain to the edge of the water You can hear her singin' softly so you spring to the order Of the song she was singin' the first time you saw her The years melt away as you ride toward the border. Such a long, long way to ride Just to hear her say your name When you reach the other side You won't leave her again. It's a resonating wonder how you've never knuckled under To the Elders of the village on that early Easter mornin' Cause you never broke your promises and bonding her is all there is Ridin' through the river in the fiery dawnin'. Such a long, long way to ride Just to hear her say your name When you reach the other side You won't leave her again. Guitar solo Sittin' in the cafe on the corner of the plaza She's openin' the letter you could not deliver As the Black Baldy Stallion riderlessly passes Gleamin' in the sun drippin' water from the river Such a long, long way to ride Just to hear her say your name When you reach the other side You won't leave her again. ... a long, long way to ride Just to hear her say your name When you reach the other side You won't leave her again. You won't leave her again.
