Lyrics
Dark Horse Lover ©2023 Starburst / Creative InRoads, LLC
I come with scars and callous
Matted tangles in me hair
I bear ye no wealthy riches
I'm neither here nor there
I'm your dark horse lover
I'm the Captain of your heart
Don't consult your good mother
This is who we are
I SHALL HAVE YOU THIS NIGHT
YOU SHALL HAVE YOUR WAY WITH ME
BUT COME THE MORNING LIGHT
LET ME WARN YOU ME DARLING
YOU MUST SET ME FREE
YOUR DARK HORSE LOVER
The crimson blush upon your cheek
Reveals what's in your soul
You can't hide your love's desire
You're the woman that I know
I'm your dark horse lover
You've kept our secret so well
Now don't tell me bout the others
Let's meet them all in hell
I SHALL HAVE YOU THIS NIGHT
YOU SHALL HAVE YOUR WAY WITH ME
BUT COME THE MORNING LIGHT
LET ME WARN YOU ME DARLING
YOU MUST SET ME FREE
YOUR DARK HORSE LOVER
Love me as you want
Be yourself with me
See the girl becomes a woman
Now give me your heart
Give me your body
I SHALL HAVE YOU THIS NIGHT
YOU SHALL HAVE YOUR WAY WITH ME
BUT COME THE MORNING LIGHT
LET ME WARN YOU ME DARLING
YOU MUST SET ME FREE
I'M YOUR DARK HORSE LOVER
YOUR DARK HORSE LOVER
DARK HORSE LOVER
