Don Edwards - West of Yesterday lyrics

In the evening's twilight Melancholy shadows stray Down the trail of memories From west of yesterday The nights a time for thinking Back to days of long ago And my favorite cowboy hero And that famous horse he rode They rode the open range Out across the silver screen Over sawdust trails and purple sage And in a young mans dreams Dreams don't last forever But memories never die Out there west of yesterday Tom Mix will always ride I remember his last sundown He watched a crimson desert sky Do you think he knew the mourning doves Were singing their last goodbye Do you think he chose this place to die Did he plan his destiny The answers in the desert wind Where his spirit still rides free He rides on heavens range Beyond the mountains purple haze Over stardust trails and golden clouds In that land of endless days It's the land where dreams come true And the memories come alive Out there west of yesterday Tom Mix will always ride Out there west of yesterday Tom Mix and Tony will always ride
