about

Named for my old droog Ben Rimmer, ( I played it at his wedding,) this is a live version from a gig at the Morden Tower, Newcastle on 29th September 2012.

lyrics

Life is like a running horse
With you up on its' back
You think you are controlling it
But the reins are slack

How long since you let them go?
Just where have you been?
It's time to take them up again
And follow your dream
