Lyrics: Francieli Eduarda Esteves
Music: Francieli Eduarda Esteves
I saw her laughin’ by the riverside,
Sun settin’ low, whiskey by my side.
Thought I’d found a love I could hold tight,
But city lights stole her from the night.
Pre-Chorus
She said, “I love your smile, but not your boots,
I can’t ride the trails, I can’t wear your roots.”
My heart’s like a lasso, tangled and torn,
Guess this cowboy’s love can’t be reborn.
Chorus
Heart on the range, broken and blue,
Rodeo nights won’t forget her, it’s true.
Yeah, this cowboy rides, but rides alone,
Love in the wild leaves a heart of stone.
Verse 2
I thought we’d dance under the barnyard lights,
Two hearts together on those country nights.
But she wants city streets, not dusty roads,
And I’m stuck with my horse and heavy loads.
Pre-Chorus
She said, “I love your smile, but not your boots,
I can’t ride the trails, I can’t wear your roots.”
My heart’s like a lasso, tangled and torn,
Guess this cowboy’s love can’t be reborn.
Chorus
Heart on the range, broken and blue,
Rodeo nights won’t forget her, it’s true.
Yeah, this cowboy rides, but rides alone,
Love in the wild leaves a heart of stone.
Bridge
I set my horse free, let him run the plains,
Pour me some whiskey, ease these cowboy pains.
She’s gone and I’m left with the midnight sky,
A lonesome cowboy, wondering why.
Final Chorus
Heart on the range, broken and blue,
Rodeo nights won’t forget her, it’s true.
Yeah, this cowboy rides, but rides alone,
Love in the wild leaves a heart of stone.
