I heard her sing in tongues of silver

Heard her cry on a summer storm

I loved her but she did not know it

I don´t think about her anymore

Now she´s gone and I can´t believe it

I don´t think about her anymore.

If three and four were seven only

Where would that leave one and two

If love can be and still be lonely

Where does that leave me and you

Time there was and time there will be

Where does that leave me and you.

If I had a Buckskin Stallion

I`d tame him down and ride away

If I had a flying schooner

I`d sail into the light of day

If I had your love forever

Sail into the light of day.

Pretty songs and pretty places

Paces that I`ve never seen

Pretty songs and pretty faces

Tell me what their laughter means

Some look like they´ll cry forever

Tell me what their laughter means.

If I had a Buckskin Stallion

I`d tame him down and ride away

If i had a golden galleon

I`d sail into the light of day

If I had your love forever

Sail into the light of day.
