Black Horse & the Cherry Tree

by KT Tunstall

(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

Well my heart knows me better than I know myself
So I'm gonna let it do all the talking
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

I felt a little fear upon my back
I said don't look back, just keep on walking
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
Well the big black horse said look this way
It said hey lady, will you marry me?
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

But I said no, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me
No, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me

(ooooo,woo-hoo)

My heart had a problem, in the early hours,
So it stopped it dead for a beat or two
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it
And it won't forgive me after all these years
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
But it won't come back cause it's oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

And it said no, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me
No, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me

(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
Said no, no, no, no... no, no, no... no, no
You're not the one for me
Said no, no, no... no, no, no... no, no
You're not the one for me


(Well there was a)
Big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there cause my heart forsaken me

Big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there cause my heart forsaken me
(Big black horse and a cherry tree)
Big black horse and a cherry tree
(I can't quite get there cause my heart forsaken me)
I can't quite get there cause my heart forsaken me
