He Just Rode Away

Sitting alone again
The Cowboy's tears silently fall
Feeling the harsh, cold pain
As he listens to the lonsome coyote's call

Memories flow through his mind
Of a different place and time
How he once held her and felt her touch
How they looked in each other's eyes
To see and feel the love so much

But that was before he wanted so much more
More than she could give
His heart sank as he knocked on the door
For after tonight, without her, he'd again have to learn to live

The pain in her eyes tore him apart
For this was the time he had to take back his heart
Though he didn't want this at all
He knew that it was best for all that were involved

He broke a promise to her that night
That he'd always take her wrongs and make them right
That he'd always be there
But even still, in his heart he deeply cares

Being alone is slowly killing him
And now the fire burns just a little more dim
As he watches the embers dying
He buries his head in his hands, again crying

Calling her name into the night
He wonders if what he's done is right
For not wanting to stand in her way
The lonesome Cowboy just rode away
