I shall not want
But I do want
I do want you, stranger
I shall not wake
But I do wake
To the vigilante come for me

Oh, oh
Pale rider

Shake me back cause I’m coming back
To the town where my true love turns in his sleep
And perhaps in the silent of the night he came
Lines of menace all across his face

Oh, you know him
Pale rider

I know he leads a darkened light
But I do not fear
The shadow of a man
I love and understand

Come from nowhere
Leave from nowhere
Oh, it’s an old, old game
Watch his figure
Bound and blooded
Turn to me as the light shines from the pane

I know that face
Pale rider

I know he leads a darkened light
But I do not fear
The shadow of a man
I love and understand
