Only a Cowboy When You Dream

_My imagined story behind a lost soul I saw once wandering the streets of Phoenix._

Lyrics:

I used to ride wide open spaces /
The wind and me, lord, we'd run races /
And nights alone didn't bother me then /
I used to be a cowboy, um, I wish I was again

_Chorus_
Another day windin' down /
There's people all around me /
No more nights alone, only lonely nights it seems /
It's hard to be a cowboy if you're only a cowboy when you dream

Remember Saturdays, when paydays rolled around /
All dressed up, I'd ride into town /
To see a lady I thought was heaven sent /
Didn't matter that she'd only stay 'till all my pay was spent

_Repeat Chorus_

Traded my horse for a pick up truck /
Moved to the city cause old cowboys are are out of luck /
Now I miss all those nights 'neath the stars /
City lights and neon life can break a cowboy's heart

_Repeat Chorus_
