lyrics

I wake before Maria
And head for the pasture
My heart beat goes faster
When I hit open air
While she’s still sleeping
I break horses
It’s work she endorses
That’s how I start my day

As I ride I sing them songs
The mare’s all answer
The loveliest dancers
On those fields of green
When I get home Maria is waiting
We laugh over coffee
The best kind of wife, you see,
Is one you can laugh with

I was raised on dreaming
I've dreamed of breaking horses before
I always find it takes more than it seems
It’s more than a dream
It’s more than a dream

I've come to know the wind
In all of its kinds out there
From pleasant to vengeful air
I've given them names
The wind I share with my father
And someday with grandson
I’m connected to everyone
In one way or another

I was raised on dreaming
I've dreamed of breaking horses before
I always find it takes more than it seems
It’s more than a dream
It’s more than a dream

I’m not without my darkness
Because I break horses
I live with the forces
And break them. Everyday.
If I never got the blues
Would I still need my wife
Would I have found the cracks in life
Where the beauty shines through?
