Lyrics:

1997Writer(s): Ryan O. MurpheyWise men spoke the visionOf the spirit horses wayLike a savior he has a missionFrom the ashes of the plainsAll the souls of mighty warriorsAre carried in his veinsAll the hopes of ancient nationsAre flowing through his maneAnd the spirit voices sayNever chase a running shadowUnderneath the midnight skyNever chase a running shadowYou will ride till you dieFrom the badlands of DakotaOne lone rider cameTo catch the restless spiritThey said could not be tamedAnd he laughed at all the legendsHe called their stories liesHe called it superstitionFoolish dreams of fading triesAnd the spirit voices cryNever chase a running shadowUnderneath the midnight skyNever chase a running shadowYou will ride till you dieOver hills and through dark canyonsHe chased the steel dust greyBut he could not catch the stallionHe could not break his paceHe pursued the racing phantomTo the canyons edgeBut running shadow jumped the chasmLeft the outlaw on the ledgeAnd the spirit voices sayNever chase a running shadowUnderneath the midnight skyNever chase a running shadowYou will ride till you dieNever chase a running shadowYou will ride till you die
