Cowboys Ride Away - Warren Zeiders

This house don't feel like home no more
Even the key don't trust the door
Nothing but silence haunts the halls
It's been a lonesome, lonely night
Lost the days, track of time
No kinda drink will get it done
'Cause like a bullet from a gun
A buck-wild mustang on the run

She was gone just like that
With the wind at her back
Saying something 'bout a sunset she needed to chase
Her heart can't be held down
Caught a tumbleweed outta town
Never shed a tear and never pulled back on the reins
And here I am, the one that stayed
And they say cowboys ride away

Guess them old westerns got it wrong
They had me fooled all along
Just like she fooled me with her love
And said forever was for us
And man, I like to think it almost was

She was gone just like that
With the wind at her back
Saying something 'bout a sunset she needed to chase
Her heart can't be held down
Caught a tumbleweed outta town
Never shed a tear and never pulled back on the reins
And here I am, the one that stayed
And they say cowboys ride away

She was gone just like that
With the wind at her back
Saying something 'bout a sunset she needed to chase
Her heart can't be held down
Caught a tumbleweed outta town
Never shed a tear and never pulled back on the reins
And here I am, the one that stayed
And they say cowboys ride away
