Trick Rider
(for C.) by Gordon Downie
-------------------------
My wild child, your night light's on.
You're in your mild depths,
the moon is on the lawn.
Just make your friends
while you're still young,
before you can't see
through anyone.
And if you're trick-riding out in the rain,
don't expect me to watch
and don't ask me to explain.
I'll be youre friend, your las refuge
when thigs get weird
and weird breaks huge.
I'll stroke your hair,
I'll dry your cheeks
when the failures come
and no one speaks,
but if you're on a horse,
trick-riding in the rain,
don't make me watch
don't ask me to explain.
If you're trick-riding
out in the mud and rain,
you can't expect me to watch
or ask me to explain.
I'm a dork. /images/tongue.gif
