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
|
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
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
Bridge
|
|
Things aren't always as they seem
|
Take the nightmare from my dreams
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
