"Rocking Horse" (Lyrics)
Noisy hands play down the hall,
where a rocking horse would soon take it's fall.
And farmhouse songs were never long enough
to see the rise and fall of GI joe, but what a bluff
to say that I'm ready to move on
that I'll pack my things and I'd be gone
Painting pictures with my words
to make something of what I've learned.
If I never see this place again,
I want to remember where it all began.
And if I could bring back the love in my hands
I bet all my horses will be rocking till the end.
Six years old and I'm on top of the world,
I've got my pudding and pie but I've yet to kiss a girl.
I want to be back in those tree house days
where never coming down was just one of our ways.
That all seem to fade away with time
I'll unpack my things, maybe learn to cry.
And if there's nothing ahead for me
I hope my roots will keep me
right where I need to be.
If I never see this place again
I want to remember where it all began.
And if I could bring back the love in my hands
I bet all my horses will be rocking till the end.
