Lonesome As A Cowboy's Lullaby

Lying here tonight staring at the North Star The wind is blowing a tune across my guitar Feeling just as lonesome as can be Picturing you cuddled up in bed and waiting there for me And you can't ever see me from the highways In my saddle working cattle like the old days Even though I love it out here on my own There are times like this when I wish you were my only home I'm lonesome as a cowboy's lullaby No one here to sing to just the empty sky Lying by the fire light almost makes me cry From wanting you to listen to this cowboy's lullaby I need you more right now than the night needs moonlight But without a cowboy's life you know I'd never feel right So I'll just do the best that I can do And sing myself to sleep till I'm lying there with you
