rockin' horse lyrics

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, tree
Yeah, tree
Tree
