I was an unbridled mustang You stopped me dead with your stare When I dismissed all your saddle busting How quick was your whip in the air I was a boy who was lonely Only after you left made aware With no hesitation or cold feet We married The very next year I write everything down that I like And you've been written into the songs of my life I was a penniless orphan In a mansion that made me despair Rich with affirming emotions But bankrupt of love I could share You were a boy who was reckless And I was the girl to repair But time spent apart seemed to make us Face ourselves instead I write everything down that I like And you've been written into the songs of my life And I like the songs that we write The pages filled, recording wars and victories that we've been given Like altars built, preserving all our history, yes we've been written In the melodies you gave to me
