White Horses Lyrics

Darlingside White Horses

[Verse 1]
My brother led me outside
Be quiet, I've got a light
No moon tonight
Sitting on the ledge outside the second floor
We could hear the sirens running up the road

[Chorus]
White horses for Chicago
Black water brings me back home

[Verse 2]
October, I lose my mind
Cross over Wisconsin line
Apple cider signs
Looking for a trace of our orchard underground
Growing in the basements beneath a brand new town

[Chorus]
White horses for Chicago
Black water brings me back home

[Verse 3]
Every year it's about the same
I'm swimming in my dreams across the lake
In second place
Come the winter I'm driving blind
A tuxedo doing doughnuts on the ice
Black-and-white on white
Doesn't matter if I sleep or follow it out of bed
I know that in the morning it's water in my head

[Chorus]
White horses for Chicago
Black water brings me back home

White horses for Chicago
Black water brings me back home
