I knew the stakes were high right from the s tart
When she dealt the c ards I bet my h eart
Now I just found a game that I can't p lay
And t his is where the cowboy r ides a way
And my heart is sinking like the setting sun
Setting on the things I w ish I'd d one
It's time to say goodbye to yesterd ay
And t his is where the co wboy rides a way
Interlude:
We've been in and out of love and in be tween
And n ow we play the f inal showdown s cene
As the credits roll a sad song starts to p lay
And t his is where the cowboy r ides a way
And my heart is sinking like the setting s un
Setting on the things I w ish I'd d one
Oh, the last goodbye's the hardest one to s ay
And t his is where the co wboy rides a way
Oh, the last goodbye's the hardest one to s ay
This is where the co wboy rides a way
