TOO HURT TO HEAL
Brenn Hill - Red Cliffs Press Music (BMI)

Verse 1:
On a whirlwind run you're a son of a gun
I never thought I'd regret the day I taught you to ride
You're on your way to the top I'd like to tell you to stop
It wouldn't do any good I know you've already tried

Your little boy's at the end of the drive sayin' Daddy can you take me this time
Hold him close wipe the tears from his eyes ain't it just like a memory of mine

Chorus:
But in the back of my mind every time I watch you drive away
I keep it buried inside along with everything else I've been wantin' to say
You've broken fifty good bones and I know you're not a young as you feel
So what happens next time if you get too hurt to heal

Verse 2:
She's a rodeo wife she's in it for life
She'd never say she regrets the day she told you I do
You ride the best that you can they turn right into your hand
You still get lucky sometimes I know you live right too

Your little boy's at the end of the drive when you finally make it home again
Hold him close wipe the hair from his eyes I remember how long it's been

Repeat Chorus:

Bridge:
Like a war plan hope for the best but plan for the absolute worst
If you dreams get shattered son by a wheelchair or a hearse

Final Chorus:
