Lonestar

Lonestar is fading into the shadows

Standing there waiting for something to say

But she's so impatient she might not see him

The chance of a lifetime could be slipping away

Standing alone, he wears his freedom

He's seen it before, the sun going down in her eyes

His heart is his own, a lonely companion

As true as the wind and the deep purple sky

Now lonestar is grieving, but she doesn't notice

She's laughing and dancing with some Romeo

But out of the bright lights there's one lonely cowboy

With nothing to hold him, and nowhere to go

Standing alone, he wears his freedom

He's seen it before, the sun going down in her eyes

His heart is his own, a lonely companion

As true as the wind and the deep purple sky

Now lonestar is fading into the shadows

He turns for the last time and slips out the door.
