Horse's Head

Echo And The Bunnymen · Singles (Songs Without Albums) [2012]

A single rose

The curtains close

A stranger's clothes

Were all I found

The great unknown

The tightrope show

A world below

Don't look down

Don't look down

Don't look down



Horse's head found in a bed

Broke the code and braved the weather

Wore a gown of chestnut brown

Finger's crossed that there's a heaven



Heaven heaven heaven heaven



Found a scroll

And ancient bones

A million ghosts

Were all around

The great unknown

The tightrope show

A world below

Don't look down

Don't look down

Don't look down



Horse's head found in a bed

Broke the code and changed the weather

Wore a gown of chestnut brown

Finger's crossed that there's a heaven



Heaven heaven heaven heaven



I found a scroll

And ancient bones

A million ghosts

Were all around

I found a scroll

And ancient bones

A million ghosts

Were all around



Horse's head found in a bed

Broke the code and braved the weather

Wore a gown of chestnut brown

Finger's crossed that there's a heaven



Horse's head found in a bed

Broke the code and changed the weather

Wore a gown of chestnut brown

Finger's crossed that there's a heaven



Heaven heaven heaven heaven



I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head

I found a horse's head
