Eighteen a young girl
she graduates from school
shes got the future
to do the things she wants to do
and little did she know
she would let her heart give in
the plans she made for life
would changed
so she could be with him
a baby born but she knows
their love is just not right
the pressures on
for right or wrong
for her to change her life
should she stay committed
and hold her feelings deep inside
society has got her down
but she wants to run wild
she wants to ride a horse across country
she wants to feel the wind
brush against her skin
she needs to find what shes been missin
she wants to ride
til she finds herself again
she got the courage up
to go out on her own
she took the little child
and found them a new home
shes workin now but its so hard
down at the factory
with little pay at the end of the day
she can barely make ends meet
years went by so quickly
though it seems the time stood still
standin by her front door
she could feel the winters chill
she looks to the horizon
where she sees the setting sun
she feels the urge of desire
and it makes her want to run
she wants to ride a horse across country
she wants to feel the wind
brush against her skin
she needs to find what shes been missin
she wants to ride
til she finds herself again
even though shes had a rough life
she wouldn't trade it for the world
treasures that she owns lie in her little girl
when she feels the old desires
that her troubles often bring
she can go to bed at night
and find them in her dreams
where she wants to ride a horse across country
she wants to feel the wind
brush against her skin
she needs to find what shes been missin
she wants to ride
til she finds herself again
