She was the woman he wanted to marry,
It's her love that he will always carry,
As he rides alone across the prairie,
She's the words to his songs,
She is where his heart belongs,
He will love her until the day he dies,
Sometime even a cowboy cries.
He has bittersweet regret..
He knew he loved her,
the day they had met,
But he rode off into the sunset,
never seeing the sunrise,
In his loves beautiful eyes,
Sometime even a cowboy cries.
It's her love he will always carry.
As he rides alone across the prairie,
She's the words to his cowboy songs,
She is where his heart belongs,
Tears fall from his eyes as he rides,
Sometime even a cowboy cries.
