Cowboy And Cowgirl Sunset Silhouette

When your heartbeats drum their message of love. My heart soars like the birds flying above. As flashing thunder streaks across dark skies, I will come swiftly, believe not their lies. If any would stop me, my rage I’ll display. Nothing or no one will stand in my way. True love hath no captor, it must be free. Our hearts and our love are just meant to be. So, hold on to faith and be not dismayed, The last card in this game has not been played. They ceased control because we’re still young, Meet me out back when you hear the bell rung. I’ve bought fast horses, we’ll be on the run, You’ll be real safe, long as I have my gun.
