I can use a better friend than 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
Said 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
Here to let you go now Please don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go
Looking through my naked eye,
reflect out into the horizon
Yet another day goes by and there's not a soul in sight
As I ride into the dark,
as I ride into the sunset
I guess it's time to say goodbye to the rider of the night
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 Here to let you go now Please 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
