The one that comes and goes
 And only the highway-woman
 Keeps up with the likes of those
 And she in all her magic
 With hands as quick as light
 Took him to be a challenge
 And went into the night


 And he in all his glory
 Was far ahead of her
 But she was never sorry
 For wishes that would burn
 Enter competition
 She chases beneath the moon
 Her horse is like a dragonfly
 She is just a fool


 And she wonders is this real
 Or does she just want to be Queen
 And he fights the way he feels
 Is this the end of the dream


 And then he sees her coming
 Heartbeats on the wind
 Considers slowing down
 But then...he could never win
 And she...out in the distance
 Sees him against the sky
 A pale and violent rider
 A dream begun in wine


 And she wonders is this real
 Or does she just want to be Queen
 And he fights the way he feels
 Is this the end of the dream


 A dream as the thunder wakes her
 And her highwayman disappears
 on a life already lived before
 In eyes welled with tears


 Today and still today they ride
 Will they ever win
 He the glory...
 She the love...
 Still they try again
 He the glory...
 She the love...
 Still they try again
 He the glory...
 She the love...
 And still they...try...again
