Roses on the Dusty Trail

Dusty roads, a heart so bold

Valentine's in the sky’s cold glow

Roses in his hand, a love so grand

On the trail, he's a steadfast man

A wandering cowboy, under sun and star

Writing his love name from near to afar

On his Mustang, he rides through the dust

Valentine’s Day, he's getting back in a rush

From her dad’s blessing, and her mom’s embrace

Determined to see her, face to face

Heartbeat pounding, on his way

His promise made, he's got to stay

Through the danger, through the fight

He’s marching toward his love tonight

Oh, wait for me, my heart’s true call

Hold on tight, I’ll catch you if you fall

When the shadows rise and the bullets fly

I’ll take the hit, I’ll say goodbye

Will you be my forever, my harmony?

In the end, just wait for me

At the bank, the trouble’s near

Robbers move, and she’s in fear

Gunpoint threats, a deadly scene

His heart breaks at what he’s seen

He leaps in front, his life at stake

A ring falls, his vow he makes

Eyes meet hers, in the hardest fight

"Marry me," he whispers, last kiss goodnight

In the dust, his final stand

A hero’s love across the land

Though he falls, his love won’t fade

His spirit lives in every prayer she’s prayed

Someday, she’ll tell their girl

Of the cowboy’s love, her brave full whirl

Hold on tight, the story’s true

Love’s eternal, in me and you

Forever waiting, heart in hand

Love’s last promise, across the sand
