Just Another Cowboy

Just another cowboy riding down the road to nowhere Eight more seconds stop and stare Their image may be different, but the core is just the same And when you buy into the passion you only feel the pain So deep that it numbs you yet just one more time And the emptiness is unbearable you will soon find That love is not found in a man or in the sweet words he may say Don’t be a puppet in his play When it’s the hardest to stand is the time that you must Don’t give into the lust In your faith you must trust That the true peace come from the one above As pure and true as a dove Don’t confuse the love With his desire for you It will only leave you empty and blue Don’t you want what is worthy and true? It’s so hard to wait But its fate The one He has for you could be placed here Have no fear He’ll be standing before your face Only because of God’s grace So save yourself for the day Lord, give me the strength so I don’t stray From your perfect plan When I desire a man To take my heart and hold it so When will that day come, only you know He’s just another cowboy
