Mystery Horse Show

by Dace Merryweather

lyrics

A memory stirs from long ago
recalling things is hard I know
but give it a chance and you might find out
some things you already know
A fire burns in the dying gloom
beneath the silver rays of the rising moon
We finish our dinner and saunter to the sea
the bugs will be swarming soon
Our casual walk is led astray
lights in the wood took our attention away
It was the Mystery Horse Show
although we wouldn't find that out for another day
And time and time again we are the last to reach the end
the mystery horse sleeps while we play
And time and time again we are the first to make amends
the Mystery Horse Show must go on
and on and on
It is the Mystery Horse Show
very mysterious don'tcha know
What is this horse show?
Is it some kind of equine disco?
Mystery Horse Show
very mysterious don'tcha know
What is this horse show?
It's advertised in morse code... and it's coming soon.

The feelings made us hoot and shriek
this is the kind of thing we seek
Soon enough we were dancing around
like all the little bugs that were at our feet
The excellence of the atmosphere left us well inclined to linger here but morning came and the mystery horse crew
had to sweep the sand clear of evidence we left around
good times crushed into the ground
We asked for water just to have found
that they had dissapeared while making minimal sound
And as we cross the world we see all mystery unfurl
the ordinary is no fun at all
And if this oyster is our world then we have surely found our pearl
in the Mystery Horse Show
It is the Mystery Horse Show
What is this horse show?
Is it some kind of equine disco?

It is a mystery
A Mystery to me
It is the Mystery Horse Show
very mysterious don'tcha know!
What is this horse show?
It's advertised in morse code.

And in the end we are all waiting in the darkness all our lives
And in the end we are all waiting for our horse show to arrive
And in the dark we watch the lights as they move strangely in the bay
And when the morning comes we catch a glimpse before it goes away
it was the Mystery Horse show
Very Mysterious don'tcha know
What was this horse show?
It's gone now so we'll never know
