Riding Horses Lyrics

Hey here I am
Out of hiding
Would you like to be my friend?
I think I like you
I think I like you
Yes

Maybe we could talk about music
And Georgie's crumbs
I think I like you
I think I like you
Yeah

And not just for what you do
Or for what you say
Or for what you were to somebody
Not for what you did
Or for what you may
For me
Yes

And I know we've had some hard times
With hard people
Hey, let's try to make new friends

And I know we've had some hard times
With hard people
Hey, let's try to make new friends

Maybe we could pretend that
We were riding in the woods
Riding horses

And mine would be black
And yours would be white

Mine would be black
And yours would be white
(2x)

Let's ride
Let's ride

Because mine would be black
And yours would be white

Mine would be black
And yours would be white
(2x)

Let's ride
(3x)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

If I remember correctly what Shara told me, this song is about childhood memories of her & her sister playing together.

And I believe georgie's crumbs refers to avant garde composer George Crumb.
