Last Horse

She's standing on the front porch, outside the screen door
Look at how her back is turned
It's amazing how much a woman can say
Without so much as saying a word

There by the window, there's a honeymoon picture of us
Dancing at the Angel Falls
But that ain't the way it is, that ain't the way it is at all

I don't wanna be the last flame
Burning in a wildfire right before the rain comes down
I don't wanna be the last star
Shining when the moon goes out

And I don't wanna get stuck here
Waiting on a train that's never coming back around
I don't wanna be the last horse
Left in this one-horse town

I used to call her baby, we loved like crazy
Felt just like we had it all
Now it's hard to say who's drifting away
But the better part of us is lost

Now when she cools off and comes back inside
I'll still try and make her smile
'Cause I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up

But I don't wanna be the last flame
Burning in a wildfire right before the rain comes down
I don't wanna be the last star
Shining when the moon goes out

And I don't wanna get stuck here
Waiting on a train that's never coming back around
I don't wanna be the last horse
Left in this one-horse town

Never planned on ending up here
But holding on and trying to keep her
Is like watching roses disappear

And I don't wanna get stuck here
Waiting on a train that's never coming back around
I don't wanna be the last horse
Left in this one-horse town
I don't wanna be the last horse
Left in this one-horse town

She's standing on the front porch, outside the screen door
Look at how her back is turned
