lyrics

There are roses bloomin’ on the shore
And Id feel bad to ever dream of more
But sometimes this light it fills me up
I get the feeling that Im riding on the cusp

And do I have enough dumb luck
To cross the line without spilling any blood
And will it ever- ever be enough
And will it ever- ever be enough

(CHORUS)
I ride a white horse to the ocean
I ride a white horse across the line
I ride a white horse to the ocean
I ride a white horse across the line

I drank- I drank the water
I rode my horse into the sky
I bet every star upon him
He started to win- I started to cry
My tears they turned to seafoam
Realized Im never going home

Theres a rodeo in heaven
Im headed towards a
7 devil bull ride
I’ve always been a pretty good dancer
But I'm not ready to fall tonight

(CHORUS
I ride a white horse to the ocean
I ride a white horse into the sea
I ride a white horse to the ocean
I ride a white horse into the sea

We may never be together
But we will never die
Sweet dreams sweet stallion
Farewell past self of mine
As stars we shine together
In constellation we unite

I am no longer afraid
We illuminate the night

White star- forever
hung up- and strung out so high
farewell forever- farewell and goodbye
sweet dreams forever- sweet dreams and goodnight-
goodnight goodnight goodnight goodnight
