Rocking Horse

ROCKING HORSE 3:29

Do you hear them rocking
horses rocking cross Texas hills
Esau’s crying father won’t you bless me still
I’ve heard that prayer pouring from my own front door

and the flame burns brighter
and my body’s calling
but I can’t remember
I can’t remember who I’m calling for

do you hear them rocking
horses rocking cross Texas fields
Jacob lies but he won’t let go of Esau’s heel
and the angels travel from heaven’s ladder to my front porch

and the flame burns brighter
as the threads unravels
and the threads unravel
from days of old

do you hear them rocking
horses rocking cross Texas hills
I lean against the wings of Gabriel
and the angels travel from heaven’s ladder to his back door

and the flame burns brighter
but he can’t remember
father can’t remember
who I sing for

and the horses rocking
rocking cross Texas hills

Do you hear them rocking
Do you hear them rocking
Do you hear them rocking
