Horse & Cart

He's dreaming of a distant star
She's dreaming of a happy marriage
Living a world apart
But living on different planets
He's praying for a moonlit night
She's waiting for a sunlit morning
Trying to get the forecast right

(Sometimes sadly mistaken) wide of the mark
(Mistaken) No second chance
(Mistaken) Round in circles in the dark
Seems like it's time to guess again

She's taken him for a ride
Too soon he believes her
He said it was below the mark
She said it was a misdemeanor
He said it was a bridge too far
She said it was a step to learning
Pouring over maps & charts
