Lyrics

There's more this fall than ever before
I'm sitting right here beside my cabin door
Recollecting the summer and this morn
Yeah, this morning I was thinking of you again
God, how long has it been
Since I seen the sunrise twinkle in your eyes
And the candlelight, oh, so deep
Yet your eyes, they are sparklin’
That's what I see when I close my eyes
Now my day's just beginning and I gotta move on
I wonder if I'll ever really know at all

How you are, how have you been
Will I ever see you again

There's an old paint horse out in the crowd
Yeah, me and him well, we're pretty good pals
But every now and then I think I should free him from me
When the times get hard and the money's not there
I think he's the only thing I could spare
But I'd miss him much more than he'd miss me
And it feels real good to ride up through the trees
Looking for strays in the midday breeze

Still I wonder - how you are, how have you been
Will I ever see you again

Now I'm living life in the old Black Hills
With my memories as time stands still
That old paint horse, why he's still with you and me
And there are many all around me that I see
It's mostly friends and family
And my life is maybe once again for me
When you search your soul, you can be set free
Just like this pony, you and me
We can live life again, thankfully

Still I wonder how you are, how have you been
Will I ever see you again
Will I ever see you again
