In the quiet of the desert night a young boy dreams
Of a wild beauty with a flowing mane running free
Her coat is the color of the earth rich and deep
Her spirit dances in the moonlight where the stars sleep
He imagines taming her this wild and graceful mare
With patience in his heart and love in his stare
But she's more than just a dream she's a whisper on the wind
A symbol of freedom that his soul aches to begin
He reaches out with a gentle hand
No rope no reins no set demands
In her eyes he sees the sky so wide
And he knows she'll never truly be his to bind
Days turn to weeks and his heart beats in time
With every gallop she makes every mountain she climbs
He watches from afar just a shadow in the sage
Hoping one day to join her share her open stage
One day she draws near her breath warm on his face
He forgets all his dreams of leading the chase
In her presence he feels a peace he's never known
Thankful for the moment for her near for not alone
He reaches out with a gentle hand
No rope no reins no set demands
In her eyes he sees the sky so wide
And he knows she'll never truly be his to bind
For the winds of change and time may blow
But in this fleeting moment he knows
That the bond they share needs no tether
It's made of something purer something better
Now he walks the plains with a light in his stride
No longer dreaming of taming her wild ride
For he's found that in freedom there's beauty and grace
And he's content just to walk beside her at her own pace
He reaches out with a gentle hand
No rope no reins no set demands
In her eyes he sees the sky so wide
And he knows she'll never truly be his to bind
And as the sun sets low and the shadows grow long
He sings to her softly a simple wordless song
Thankful for her presence for this day under the sky
Knowing that freedom is where her spirit lies
