Goodbye Horses – Q Lazzarus

This is the original cover sleeve of the ‘Goodbye Horses’ single, so people can see that it is a woman singing. The picture is of Q Lazzarus. I too, initially thought it was a man singing, but knowing that it is not, does not detract from the fact that the song is amazing and powerful. The song lyrics and composition by William Garvey (who died in 2009) and sung by Q Lazzarus. Actual lyrics are :- GOODBYE HORSES He told me, “I’ve seen it rise, But, it always falls. I’ve seen ’em come, I’ve seen ’em go.” He said, “All things pass into the night.” And I said, “Oh no sir, I must say you’re wrong, I must disagree, Oh no sir, I must say you’re wrong, Won’t you listen to me?” He told me, “I’ve seen it all before, I’ve been there, I’ve seen my hopes and dreams lying on the ground. I’ve seen the sky, just begin to fall.” He said, “All things pass into the night” And I said, “Oh no sir, I must say you’re wrong, I must disagree, Oh no sir, I must say you’re wrong, Won’t you listen to me.” Goodbye horses, I’m flying over you. Goodbye horses, I’m flying over you. —You can check this, by going to William Garvey’s website. www.garveymusic.com It’s a woman singing about a man (sung in past tense), and what he’s telling her is all very negative, to which she disagrees. It’s pretty simplistic in it’s verses. The ‘Goodbye Horses’ lyric is clearly a metaphor. There are no horses in the song. Basically, it’s the mind we’re talking about here. ‘Goodbye Horses’ is saying goodbye to the mind …
