Rockin' Horse

[Verse 1]

The rocking horse came

From an old oak tree

Just missed the house

When it was hit by lightning

My daddy painted that horse

A midnight blue

Shooting stars and silver horseshoes

And it was something magic out of something frightening

[Chorus][x2]

That's how I live my life

I take it as it comes

And I find the hidden love

When it's pouring down on me

In my mind I see

The rocking horse inside the tree

A broken heart

Means deeper feelings

A thorn in the flesh

Means room for healing

Oh salt in your tears

Can open your eyes

Wounded years

Make you realize

It's just something magic out of something frightening

[Bridge]

Things aren't always as they seem

Take the nightmare from my dreams

[Chorus]

That's how I live my life

I take it as it comes

And I find the hidden love

When it's pouring down on me

In my mind I see

The rocking horse inside the tree

A broken heart

Means deeper feelings

A thorn in the flesh

Means room for healing

Oh salt in your tears

Can open your eyes

Wounded years

Make you realize

It's just something magic out of something frightening
