An awkward boy
Who comes home late
To find the world has changed forever
Who says her name
In double time
As though this might keep things together

It's in your hands if you want it
Right in your hands if you want it
Fine and feathered
Liberty horses
Oh we are tied and tethered
Liberty horses

And now I know where I went wrong
And this will change the way I see things
Before I go, you slap me down
And bring me round again completely

It's in your heart if you want it
Fine and feathered
Liberty horses
Oh we are tied and tethered
Liberty horses

This sad old day is ended now
It may get better one time
I will find heaven in my mind
My way, my way

An awkward boy
Who comes home late
To find the world has changed forever
Who says her name
In double time
As though this might keep things together

It's in your arms if you want it
Right in your arms if you want it
Fine and feathered
Liberty horses
Oh we are tied and tethered
Liberty horses
