Stevie Nicks - The Highwayman Lyrics

Underplayed and appreciated

🎼a pale and violent rider
a dream begun in wine...🎼

This song is timeless it's about Danerys Targaryen and khai Drogo or maybe Danny and Jon Snow if you pay attention to the lyrics to all of you GOT fans

Sees him against the sky a pale and violent Rider a dream begun in wine...

Stevie said that she would like to write a song for GOT, she doesn't have to. She already did and she doesn't know maybe she does l hope. Thank you Stevie for being so talented

Best song for Danerys Targaryen ,Drogo and Jon Snow listen to the lyrics

So she cheats on Lindsey with Mick and goes and bangs it out with a couple of the Eagles....? Such a nice voice from a smelly pirate hooker

I love Stevie Nicks, but this is the best comment ever!!

Heres a thought..is your past so spotless that you can judge her? I'll wait..no? Okay thanks for playing you judgemental little birch

Fuck you judgemental truckstop lot lizard!

Hate much

I can dance to this on my wedding. Beautiful.

Today and still today they ride..will they ever win....god i love her. He the glory she the love.. ..such a good song

Boy these remastered cuts really took out Henley's voice

I hear him loud and clear.

Lyrics

"Alas he was the highwayman
The one that comes and goes
And only the highway-woman
Keeps up with the likes of those
And she in all her magic
With hands as quick as light
Took him to be a challenge
And went into the night

And he in all his glory
Was far ahead of her
But she was never sorry
For wishes that would burn
Enter competition
She chases beneath the moon
Her horse is like a dragonfly
She is just a fool

And she wonders is this real
Or does she just want to be Queen
And he fights the way he feels
Is this the end of the dream

And then he sees her coming
Heartbeats on the wind
Considers slowing down
But then, he could never win
And she, out in the distance
Sees him against the sky
A pale and violent rider
A dream begun in wine

And she wonders is this real
Or does she just want to be Queen
And he fights the way he feels
Is this the end of the dream

A dream as the thunder wakes her
And her highwayman disappears
On a life already lived before
In eyes welled with tears
Today and still today they ride
Will they ever win

He the glory,
She the love,
Still they try again
He the glory,
She the love,
Still they try again
He the glory,
She the love,
And still they, try, again"

I always thought it was "a dream begun in why"

Masterpiece..

my mom's favorite song by her, she used to sing this to me as a baby to get me to sleep,

Did it work?😊
