Beach Fossils – The Horse

• 0
  My Interpretation:Perpetuating memories/daydreams about a former lover; perhaps reliving certain moments of the relationship, including the breakup and how that may have shattered whatever idealistic notions that existed about that relationship/person ("I drop from the sky right as you say goodbye, forever have haunted our dreams"). Although, I'm curious about the "our dreams" bit. Perhaps the other person involved isn't over it either, and he knows it?
  
  There seems to be some sort of self-discovery through it all, which tends to happen upon reflecting back on a broken relationship ("Stones of the ground are uncoverin' line that I never once knew were there"). At the end of it he seems to still be dreaming of this person, indicating that he still feels connected and hasn't really been able to let go.

  General Comment:I hear:
  
  I couldn't talk to you
  But I'd love to walk with you
  I drop from the sky
  Right as you say goodbye
  Forever have haunted our dreams
  
  I lost my heart for you
  And I set it free for two
  Stones of the ground are uncoverin' line
  That I never once knew were there
  
  The horse of you
  The horse with your hand to the sky
  We turn back again and I turn in my bed
  The horse is not undone
  
  -----------------
  
  Either way, it's a great song.
