Once Upon a Time in the West

Lyrics

These days everybody wants a cowboy
 And I get the appeal
 Who doesn't love a rebel in a wide open field?
 Your tongue's tied like a lasso
 His is silver as his gun
 He'll wrangle the moon
 And then he'll shoot out the sun
 The only thing that he can't do is stay
 But he'll tip his hat before he rides away
 He'll come in guns blazing then
 Leave you wild and craving him
 He won't ride into the sunset
 He'll be long gone before that
 Mend your fence but leave you broken
 Just enough so you're still hoping
 That's him in the distance
 But you haven't heard from him since
 He left you in a cloud of dust
 Guess this town wasn't big enough of us
 That's the thing about cowboys
 Sharp shooters don't miss
 Anything or anyone
 They just keep heading west
 You'll never be his sidekick
 You're not Bonnie and Clyde
 When the sheriff comes to get you
 He'll leave you behind
 The only thing that he can't do is stay
 But he'll tip his hat before he rides away
 He'll come in guns blazing then
 Leave you wild and craving him
 He won't ride into the sunset
 He'll be long gone before that
 Mend your fence but leave you broken
 Just enough so you're still hoping
 That's him in the distance
 But you haven't heard from him since
 He left you in a cloud of dust
 Guess this town wasn't big enough of us
 One hand on his holster and a bounty on his head
 I'm the only one who wants him who don't want him dead
 The only thing quicker than his quickdraw was how
 Fast my heart broke when I heard he left town
 The only thing that he can't do is change
 But he'll leave you with a promise of someday
 Came in guns blazing then
 Left me wild and craving him
 He didn't ride into the sunset
 He was long gone before that
 Both of his guns still smoking
 Years later I'm still hoping
 I'll see him in the distance
 But I haven't heard from him since
 He left me in his cloud of dust
 Guess this town wasn't big enough for both of us
