Pale, Lonesome Rider

[Chorus]
I'm a pale, lonesome rider
Throwing my face right to the wind
A better man would settle down beside her
Who do you think I am?
I'm a pale lonesome rider
Companion to no 'where' or 'when'
I guess I'll have to wait until the next life
To begin again

[Verse 1]
When the sun sits beside her
You know she don’t understand
How all that hope that she's been holding
Is dripping through her hands
Now it seems like we were sent here
With eyes to a different world's design
Honey, we can't go on forever
But we can stay the night

[Chorus]
I'm a pale, lonesome rider
Throwing my face right to the wind
A better man would settle down beside her
Who do you think I am?
I'm a pale lonesome rider
Companion to no 'where' or 'when'
I guess I'll have to wait until the next life
To begin again, to begin again

[Verse 2]
So you're told a soul sent from heaven
Took this body, a soul-machine, to ride
But now we have to go on living
When those dreams die
So, I'll focus on forgetting
But some memories don't need a hand
What is a man to make so much of his winters
And his foolish plans?

[Chorus]
I'm a pale, lonesome rider
Throwing my face right to the wind
A better man would settle down beside her
Who do you think I am?
I'm a pale lonesome rider
Companion to no 'where' or 'when'
I guess I'll have to wait until the next life
To begin again, to begin again
