Reason to Ride

I know lonesome, like the devil knows the sand
I know heartache, like the back of my hand
I know leaving, like a river knows to run
I know goodbye, like a bullet knows a gun
I wanna love you, give you the best of me
I wanna tell you, I ain't ever going to leave
And that setting sun won't fall on me this time
I'm just a cowboy, looking for a reason to ride
I know that smile, and right where it leads
I know my heart, and right where it bleeds
And the last thing I want, is to see you get hurt
I keep that saddle on so nobody gets burned.
I wanna love you, give you the best of me
I wanna tell you, I ain't ever going to leave
And that setting sun won't fall on me this time
I'm just a cowboy, looking for a reason to ride
If someday I find a way to put the bullet back in the gun
And somehow i found out for the ribbon light to run
And sometime the desert finds a single drop of rain
Maybe I can change
And I can love you
Give you the best of me
And tell you I ain't ever going to leave
And that setting sun won't fall on me this time
No that setting sun won't fall on me this time
I'm just a cowboy, looking for a reason to ride
