Lucy Lloyd - Ride Again (Patreon)

AI-generated.RIDE AGAIN

Golden fields where the wild horses runTomboy dreams underneath the sunShe had plans as wide as the open skyBut her sister's beauty caught every eyeWhen the babies came and the family brokeLucy folded her future in a faded coatWhat should've been a season turned to twenty yearsLike pages she forgot to turn

Oh Lucy, you carry the weight of it allGave up the runway, the reins, the callBuilt an empire from the shadows you stand inBury the ache with a wink and a grinYou let the men get close but never stayOne foot out the door before they see your face

She books the flights, she signs the dealsSays somebody's got to hold the wheelRaised those girls like they came from her ownWiped every tear, made the house a homeStood in the wings while the cameras rolledThen drove herself home in the cold

She cracks the jokes so nobody knowsHow quiet a resentment growsFor a world that looked straight past her from the startAnd a girl who learned to play the part

Oh Lucy, you carry the weight of it allGave up the runway, the reins, the callBuilt an empire from the shadows you stand inBury the ache with a wink and a grinThe rock, the protector, the laughter, the glue —And we never asked what it cost you

But look at the woman you've becomeStrong as the earth you grew up onWarm as summer on those golden fieldsThe kind of loyal that never yieldsYou don't need saving — you never didYou just need someone to say it's your turn to live

No more standing in the wingsThe stage is yours — answer the call

Oh Lucy — oh Lucy, we see you nowPut down the weight and take your bowYou built us an empire, stood in the shade of itNow the light's yours, Lucy — come stand in itFarm girl heart, rider wild and freeYou carried us all — now carry you

So ride again, Lucy — the gate's swung wideThe fields are still there and the dream's still aliveThere's nobody's shadow left to stand inRide, Lucy, ride again

Ride again, Lucy…The light is yours…The rock stands still — but the rider rides…Ride again…
