i was an unbridled mustang you stopped me dead with your stare when i dismissed all your saddle busting how quick was your whip in the air and i was a boy who was lonely only after you left made aware with no hesitation or cold feet we married the very next year and i write everything down that i like and you ve been written into the songs of my life and i was a penniless orphan in a mansion that made me despair rich with affirming emotion but bankrupt of love i could share you were the boy who was reckless and i was the girl to repair but time spent apart seemed to make us face our selves instead i write everything down that i like and you ve been written into the songs of my life and i like the songs that we write the pages filled recording wars and victories that we ve been given like altars built preserving all our history yes we ve been written in the melodies you gave to me i write everything down that i like and you ve been written into the songs of my life and i like the songs that we write and i write everything down that i like and you ve been written into the songs of my life and i like the songs that we write
