I was just a city boy, living in a concrete jungle
Never knew the beauty of the stars or the smell of fresh hay
Then I met him at a rodeo, he was riding on a bull
He had a hat and boots and a smile that took my breath away
He's my cowboy love, he's the one I'm dreaming of
He makes me feel alive, he's the reason I survive
He's my cowboy love, he's the one I'm living for
He's the sun in my sky, he's the fire in my eyes
He taught me how to ride a horse, he showed me how to rope a steer
He took me to his ranch and introduced me to his family
He kissed me under the moonlight, he whispered in my ear
He said he loved me and he wanted me to be his only
He's my cowboy love, he's the one I'm dreaming of
He makes me feel alive, he's the reason I survive
He's my cowboy love, he's the one I'm living for
He's the sun in my sky, he's the fire in my eyes
But then one day he had to go, he said he had to chase his dreams
He said he'd come back for me, he said he'd never forget me
But it's been a year and I haven't heard from him, I wonder if he still thinks of me
Or if he found another lover, another cowboy to set him free
He's my cowboy love, he's the one I'm dreaming of
He makes me feel alive, he's the reason I survive
He's my cowboy love, he's the one I'm living for
He's the sun in my sky, he's the fire in my eyes
I still miss him every day, I still hope he'll come back to me
But until then I'll keep singing this song, this song of cowboy love

A poem of love imagined, found and lost now just remembered. A sad poem of fond memories. Well done
