Thread Name: Chord Req: White Horses Are Calling Me (Bedford)
Subject: Lyr Add:WHITE HORSES ARE CALLING ME (B Bedford)
I can't provide chords, but I found the lyrics.
From Pint & Dale's web site:
WHITE HORSES ARE CALLING ME*
Written by Brian Bedford
As sung by William Pint & Felicia Dale on "White Horses"
CHORUS: White horses are calling me
To ride on the tide to the wide-open sea.
Spurred by the wind, tamed by the moon,
I will ride the white horses, ride the white horses,
I'll ride the white horses soon.
1. No sailor am I, for the city's my place,
But still I would feel the salt wind on my face,
Watching stallions that silently race for the sand,
Pounding moonlight and starlight-lit shimmering lands,
CHORUS: Where white horses....
2. Every path seems to lead to the quay that's inside,
And there take the ebb-tide to where I would ride,
Seeking dreams of adventure, contented and free,
Scanning endless horizons, the stars and the sea,
CHORUS: Where white horses....
3. This sea has no danger, this ocean no threat,
For safe on my pillow, brave dreams I'll forget.
Still in moonlight, closed-eye light, they run for the shore,
And I'll ride the white horses once more.
CHORUS: Yes, white horses.... [Repeat chorus]
I will ride the white horses, ride the white horses,
I'll ride the white horses soon.
I'll ride the white horses soon.
[* Title as given on Pint & Dale's web site. On the album, the medley this song with a tune, "Metal Man," so it appears on Spotify's track listing as "Metal Man/White Horses."]
