[Verse 1]
Child on a painted horse
Streams that will run their course
Gone to a far away shore

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ah
My painted horse is weeping

[Verse 2]
Days of another kind
Frost gets a bruising vine
Why did the carpenter die?

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ah
My painted horse is weeping

[Verse 3]
Sweet as a rose so fine
Peaceful as a final time
How old could the lion man cry?

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ah
My painted horse is weeping
[Verse 4]
Thoughts of a winter moon
Warm in a distant room
Why did I fall asleep so soon?

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ah
My painted horse is weeping
