One night in my dreams
I rode a grey stallion
No leather nor rope did I use
O'er the moors and up the steep mountains
Not a step did that steel pony lose
Twisting and turning
Raging and burning
The fire of life in his eyes

He said come... come away
Let me take you on the wind
We'll fly away... fly away
From the torment of the storm we will sail
Let this power God gave us never fail

One day I was walking
I found the grey stallion
Human bound by leather and steel
Down city streets he carried man's burden
Fightin' to stand did he reel
Beaten and broken
Silent... unspoken
The ember of death in his eyes

I said come... come away
Let me take you on the wind
We'll fly away... fly away
From the torment of the storm we will sail
Let this power God gave us never fail

That night in my arms
I held the grey stallion
No leather nor rope could he feel
Alas... beyond my reach
His breath drawn heavy
Slowly to death did he yield
Beaten and broken
Silent... unspoken
Cold marble ice were his eyes

I said drift... drift away
Let him take you on the wind
You'll fly away... fly away
From the torment of the storm you will sail
Let this power God gave us never fail

Dark night down the ages
My body old and failing
Dying... alone in fear
When out of the mist appeared a grey stallion
Come to take me home
Twisting and turning
Raging and burning
The fire of life in his eyes

He said come... come away
Let me take you on the wind
We'll fly away... fly away
From the torment of the storm we will sail
Let this power God gave us never fail
