Rockin' Horse

The rocking horse came from an old oak tree
Just missed the house 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
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
Broken heart means deeper feelings
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
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
Ooh, things aren't always as they seem
Ooh, take the nightmare from my dreams
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
Oh, treeYeah, tree
Tree
