Some nights the silence gets too loud And every memory comes around I’ve tried to pray, I’ve tried to sleep But some hurt settles way down deep So I walk out where the barn light glows She hears my steps and somehow knows No questions asked, no need to hide I pull that saddle down and ride There are things I’ll never understand But I find a little peace with those reins in my hands When my heart can’t find the words I saddle up and ride Let the hoofbeats drown the hurting Let the open sky decide I can’t change what’s gone I can’t outrun goodbye But I can breathe a little easier On the other side of a ride Yeah, when my heart can’t find the words I saddle up and ride I’ve lost some dreams I thought would stay Watched forever turn and walk away I’ve hit the dirt, I’ve missed the mark I’ve carried pieces through the dark But she don’t care about yesterday She just waits for me to find my way And somewhere past that old fence line The weight gets lighter every time When my heart can’t find the words I saddle up and ride Let the hoofbeats drown the hurting Let the open sky decide I can’t change what’s gone I can’t outrun goodbye But I can breathe a little easier On the other side of a ride Yeah, when my heart can’t find the words I saddle up and ride Some wounds don’t need an answer Some tears just need to fall Sometimes healing ain’t forgetting It’s learning how to carry it all And when I don’t know where I’m going She keeps moving anyway… One more circle One more mile One more breath And after a while… WHEN MY HEART CAN’T FIND THE WORDS I SADDLE UP AND RIDE Let the thunder of those hoofbeats Bring this broken heart alive I can’t bring back what I’ve lost And I won’t pretend I’m fine But every time I take those reins I leave a little hurt behind Through every tear Through every scar Through every long and lonely night When my heart can’t find the words… I saddle up and ride. Maybe healing doesn’t happen all at once… Maybe sometimes you just ride.
