Kaleo Lonely Cowboy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can use a better friend than the one I've got, my shadow
Even when the sun goes down, he will leave me by myself
In the mornin' he returns, but he doesn't ever say much
I don't wanna ride alone down this dark and lonesome road

[Chorus]
'Cause even cowboys can get lonely from time to time
'Cause even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Yеs, but I, I know one thing, I've come much to far
Yеah, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go
[Verse 2]
Share the silence with a fire, roll the rest of my tobacco
Tellin' stories to myself, but I know them all too well (Mm)
When the desert night is cold, I just want someone to hold me close
I don't wanna die alone, who's gonna love me when I'm gone?

[Chorus]
'Cause even cowboys can get lonely from time to time (Mm-hmm) Even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Yes, but I, I know one thing, I've come much too far
Oh, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Look into my naked eye, reflect out into the horizon
Ooh, yet another day goes by and there's not a soul in sight
As I ride into the dark, as I ride into the sunset
I guess it's time to say goodbye to the rider of the night

[Chorus]
'Cause even cowboys can get lonely from time to time
'Cause even cowboys can get lonesome sometimes
Yes, but I, I know one thing
I know one thing I've come much too far
Oh, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go
[Outro]
'Cause even cowboys do get lonely
Oh, just like me
Yes, even me
Oh, just like me
Even me
