Pullin' Back The Reins

K.D. Lang

k.d. lang/Ben Mink

out of nowhere this gust of wind

brushed my hair and kissed my skin

i aimed to hold a bridled pace

when with love itself i came face to face



pullin' back the reins

trying to remain

tall in a saddle

when all that we had well

ran away

with a will of its own



i know your soul is wild and free

like this galloiong inside me

tossed by instinct and where we land

is vast and certain of all that's planned



you know, i learned to break the run

and gently harness the love of someone

yes, and equal parts of wait and trust

is in control of the both of us
