What I Loved To Do

I didn't mean to leave this way,
to go like i did,
I had my dreams to fill,
to see the smiles of my kid.

But I shook the hands of fate that day,
before I climed aboard the bull,
and you know I think he knew it,
as he gave my rope a pull.

He didn't feel right,
When I settled on his seat
but I couldn't back down,
there's a reason I compete.

It wasn't that I didn't love you,
or that I wanted to break your heart,
Its the way the cards get dealt,
And you can't cheat once it starts.

Don't think of me and cry now,
Just hang on, Spur and go
cause I'm still the same,
Just now I'm ridin in Heaven's Show

Forgive me for leaving you,
for putting you through what I put you through,
But know at peace that I left,
Doing What I Loved To Do.

"Cowboys don't die just go and ride in heaven with God for a while."  These words came from a 5 year old shortly after the passing of Glen Keely  Thanks to Matthew for the words we all needed to here in this tough time.
