So I can use a better friend
I'm the one I've got in my shadow
Even when the sun goes down he will leave me by myself
In the morning he returns but he doesn't ever say much
I don't want to ride alone down this dark and lonesome road
Seeming cowboys can get lonely from time to time
Seeming cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Yes, but I know one thing I've come much too far
To let you go now Please don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go
Share the silence with the fire Roll the rest of my tobacco
Telling stories to myself but I know them all too well
When the desert night is cold I just want someone to hold me close
I don't want to die alone He's gonna love me when I'm gone
Seeming cowboys can get lonely from time
to time
Seeming cowboys do get lonesome sometimes Yes,
but I know one thing I've come much too
far To let you go now
Please don't let me go Lord, don't let me go
I look into my naked eye
Reflect out into the horizon
Yet another day goes by And there's not a soul in sight
So as I ride into the dark As I ride into the sunset
Guess it's time to say goodbye To the rider of the night
Seeming cowboys can get lonely from time
to time
Seeming cowboys can get lonesome sometimes Yes,
but I know one thing
I've come much too far To let you go now Please don't let me go Lord,
don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go
Seeming cowboys do get lonely
Just like me Yes,
even me
Just like me
Even me
