HORSE GIRL

You risked it big today kid
You jumped from oh so high
Makes sense that the landing wasn’t great
You have nothing to be ashamed of
Failure might be the road we ride
When some people
Spend their whole lives inside
So even if you didn’t fly
Honor how courageously you tried

You are lovely and oh so earnest
You’re disappointed ‘cause
You hoped for life in fullness
And hope will never put you to shame
Don’t lose heart ‘cause your day is coming
And the woman that you’re becoming
Will look back and thank God
That it wasn’t today
Only you know the gold inside of you
And nobody can take it away from you

So hold onto your horses girl
Hold on stay the course
‘Cause you’re gonna be alright
I know that it hurts more
Than ever before but you’re
Gonna see morning light
So baby don’t lose faith tonight

It’s okay to walk away
To heal to see another day
No matter what some people say
It doesn’t mean you’re too afraid
Coming home ain’t the same
As never leaving
Happiness ain’t the same
As never grieving
Don’t we all need
Something to believe in
Oh well you might be old enough
To restart dreaming yeah

Hold onto your horses girl
Hold on stay the course
‘Cause you’re gonna be alright
I know that it hurts more
Than ever before but you’re
Gonna see morning light
So baby don’t lose faith tonight

If you’re breathing you’ve still got time
If you’re breathing you’ve still got time
Baby girl take a breath
There’s so much time
Someone else’s day in the sun
Doesn’t mean you won’t get one
So cheer ‘em on ‘cause
We’ve all got a race to run
Cheer ‘em on ‘cause
We all just need someone

Hold onto your horses girl
Hold on stay the course
‘Cause you’re gonna be alright
I know that it hurts more
Than ever before but you’re
Gonna see morning light
So baby don’t lose faith tonight
Baby don’t lose faith tonight

Someday they’re all gonna see your light
