To Love a Cowboy

I was never looking for a reason

Never turned to love for answers

But I was just getting by

Down the highway, crossing county lines

Oh, I was making my way to you

Oh, I was just waiting on a star

While you were pretending to love me from afar

It's a case of I should've known better than to love a cowboy

Horse is always saddled up

Never knowing what you want

In the morning you'll be gone

Like a Texas sun moving on

And I know that I should be doing the same thing too

But I'm always led to you

Wonder what life would be like if things were different

When you love someone you stay around just so you can make things work

But he's packing up his truck

He's loading up his stuff

A cowboys life just ain't like that and they never look back

Oh, he was the one who got away with my heart

Now he's the one leaving for a fresh start

It's a case of I should've known better than to love a cowboy

Horse is always saddled up

Never knowing what you want

In the morning you'll be gone

Like a Texas sun moving on

And I know that I should be doing the same thing too

But I'm always led to

Sitting on my front porch smoking a cigarette, watching you leave

Hope was something you gave to me

It's a case of I should've known better than to love a cowboy

Horse is always saddled up

Never knowing what you want

In the morning you'll be gone

Like a Texas sun moving on

And I know that I should be doing the same thing too

Oh, and I know that I should be doing the same thing too

But I'm always led to you

I'm always led to you, oh
