There goes the dark horse
Leaving the stage with my baby
And there goes the dark horse
Leaving this place without me
Now I'm writing you from Montreal
To tell you that I don't belong here
I'm writing you from Montreal
Bye, bye

Well you're a pretty nice kid
And I wanna know
What made you think you could make it in a place like this
A place like this

You're feeding your kids among all these pirates
You're feeding your kids the best that you can
With what you've got

And now I'm writing you with all my heart
To tell you that I don't belong here
I'm writing you from all my heart
Bye, bye

So there goes the dark horse
Leaving my life forever
And there goes the dark horse
Leaving this life forever
And now I'm writing you with all my heart
To tell you that I'm coming home
And I'm writing you from all my heart
Bye, bye
