Live at Hoxeyville 2012
lyrics
You were born in the middle of the night
And you were dreaming that you had died
But then you woke up
First thing you did...
Starting chasing WILD BULLS
It took so long 'cause you couldn't see a thing
The rivers had no names and the grass was tall
'I don't know where I am...'
'I don't know where I am...'
Thank god you saw some FOOTPRINTS
Then you learned to walk
You hear a voice and you sense its source
Beyond that gate there ain't no horse
Your senses merge like the beast with the dirt
The sun is warm; ain't nothin' can hide
'Well I think I see a bull...'
'You know, I think I see a bull...'
'And I'm gonna try to ride a WILD BULL'
But that beast was strong and the struggle was long
You know you gotta tie that rope; you gotta crack that whip
Hold on to that nose ring tight
Hold on to that nose ring tight
If you're gonna try to ride a WILD BULL
So far from home, you mount that bull
No more to strive, but only to ride
'Well I love to sing and play my little flute...'
'And hum a little tune...'
'While I'm riding on a wild bull'
You got back home and you had a dream
You dreamed that you were born asleep in a stream
'This is not my wild bull...'
'This is not my beautiful little hut...'
'I don't know who I am...'
'But I was always here...'
'Tryin' to ride a WILD BULL'
And you were dreaming that you had died
But then you woke up
First thing you did...
Starting chasing WILD BULLS
It took so long 'cause you couldn't see a thing
The rivers had no names and the grass was tall
'I don't know where I am...'
'I don't know where I am...'
Thank god you saw some FOOTPRINTS
Then you learned to walk
You hear a voice and you sense its source
Beyond that gate there ain't no horse
Your senses merge like the beast with the dirt
The sun is warm; ain't nothin' can hide
'Well I think I see a bull...'
'You know, I think I see a bull...'
'And I'm gonna try to ride a WILD BULL'
But that beast was strong and the struggle was long
You know you gotta tie that rope; you gotta crack that whip
Hold on to that nose ring tight
Hold on to that nose ring tight
If you're gonna try to ride a WILD BULL
So far from home, you mount that bull
No more to strive, but only to ride
'Well I love to sing and play my little flute...'
'And hum a little tune...'
'While I'm riding on a wild bull'
You got back home and you had a dream
You dreamed that you were born asleep in a stream
'This is not my wild bull...'
'This is not my beautiful little hut...'
'I don't know who I am...'
'But I was always here...'
