Lynn Miles - I Loved a Cowboy lyrics

I loved a cowboy I loved his cowboy ways I loved his sky-blue eyes Those cold November days He'd walk across the field And I could see his breath And I swear I heard his heart Beating inside his chest And those nights spent in two-horse towns Pick-up trucks and country bars Those nights were like blankets Like movies Like falling . . . like falling . . . stars Well I loved this cowboy More than I should admit More than I knew was right But I got real used to it I would go out ridin' For two weeks at a time And I knew the only lonely heart Was never his, only mine And those nights spent in two-horse towns Pick-up trucks and country bars Those nights were like blankets Like movies Like falling . . . like falling . . . stars When I thought about it Some loves are compromise Some loves burn bright and fast and die Some loves are all on one side So I left this cowboy I left on New Year's Day It was my resolution I just up and rode away From those nights spent in two-horse towns Pick-up trucks and country bars Those nights were like blankets Like movies Like falling . . . like falling . . . stars
