(Verse 1)
Out on these endless plains, where the wild winds blow,
I ride beneath the stars, with a heart full of woe.
The moonlight shines on memories, of the love I left behind,
A whisper in the night sky, just echoes in my mind.
(Chorus)
I’m just a lonely cowboy, with dust on my boots,
Chasin’ shadows of a love, that’s long gone and mute.
The cattle low and the coyotes cry,
But the silence of your absence, is the hardest goodbye.
(Verse 2)
I remember the nights, we'd dance 'round the fire,
Your laughter in the dark, it was all I’d ever desire.
But the trail got rough, and the storms rolled in,
Now I’m just a drifter, with a heart full of sin.
(Chorus)
I’m just a lonely cowboy, with dust on my boots,
Chasin’ shadows of a love, that’s long gone and mute.
The cattle low and the coyotes cry,
But the silence of your absence, is the hardest goodbye.
(Bridge)
Every sunset brings a memory, of the way you used to smile,
But the stars are just reminders, of the distance and the miles.
I’d trade my saddle for a moment, just to hold you close again,
But the road keeps on a-rollin’, and I’m left with this pain.
(Verse 3)
So I’ll ride into the sunset, with a heart heavy as stone,
In the land of lost dreams, where I’m forever alone.
With the dust on my boots, and a tear in my eye,
I’ll keep searchin’ for the love, that made me feel alive.
(Chorus)
I’m just a lonely cowboy, with dust on my boots,
Chasin’ shadows of a love, that’s long gone and mute.
The cattle low and the coyotes cry,
But the silence of your absence, is the hardest goodbye.
(Outro)
So here’s to the lost ones, who wander this land,
With hearts full of sorrow, and memories like sand.
I’m just a lonely cowboy, with dust on my boots,
Searchin’ for a love, that’s forever out of roots.
