Only the Horses Lyrics
I know you didn't realize
That the city was gone
You thought there would be advertisements
To give you something to go on
So we search the sky, for any flashing signs
We've gone too far beyond, the border it's just you and I
And if this is the end, it's the place i've ever been
It feels so good to just get lost sometimes
Only the horses, can find us tonight
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Our tracks they will follow, they'll hear us calling
And save us by morning light
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Tonight, tonight
We can't scape the basic facts
How cold it can get
There's nothing to protect ourselves
When the rain gets us wet
So i'll just tell you now, this is our final bow
If you don't know the way to hold me let me show you how
And if this is the end, it's the place i've ever been
It feels so good to just get lost sometimes
Only the horses, can find us tonight
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Our tracks they will follow, they'll hear us calling
And save us by morning light
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Tonight, tonight
Na-hoo, na-hoo, na-hoo, na-hoo...
Only the horses, can find us tonight
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Our tracks they will follow, they'll hear us calling
And save us by morning light
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Tonight.
That the city was gone
You thought there would be advertisements
To give you something to go on
We've gone too far beyond, the border it's just you and I
And if this is the end, it's the place i've ever been
It feels so good to just get lost sometimes
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Our tracks they will follow, they'll hear us calling
And save us by morning light
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Tonight, tonight
How cold it can get
There's nothing to protect ourselves
When the rain gets us wet
So i'll just tell you now, this is our final bow
If you don't know the way to hold me let me show you how
And if this is the end, it's the place i've ever been
It feels so good to just get lost sometimes
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Our tracks they will follow, they'll hear us calling
And save us by morning light
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Tonight, tonight
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Our tracks they will follow, they'll hear us calling
And save us by morning light
Only the horses, can bring us back home
Tonight.

I like to think of this song as a size queen anthem. According to Wikipedia, the Scissor Sisters were "forged in the scuzzy, gay nightlife scene of New York".
I imagine this song as its cold and raining at the club, but you aren't going to go outside and deal with the weather for just anything. However if a "horse" were to come around, then it might be a different story.
