[verse 1]
You've gone, there's nothin' left for me.
My body not enough, you need my faith.
Taken all I had to give, an' more.
Replaced the hope I put in you, with hate.
[pre-chorus]
Why oh why, did you go an' make me cry,
let you in, cos I put my trust in you.
You swore to stay, an' look after me,
went back to her, couldn't let things be.
[chorus]
Just another cowboy on the make,
one thing on ya mind, an' it aint love.
not here to listen to me, just to take,
got what you need, an' that's enough.
[verse 2]
Sweet words an' promises, didn't last,
you left me, in a bundle on the floor,
All I wanted, a shoulder to lean on,
from me, your mind was set on more.
[pre-chorus]
Why oh why, did you go an' make me cry,
let you in, cos I put my trust in you.
You swore to stay, an' look after me,
went back to her, couldn't let things be.
[chorus]
Just another cowboy on the make,
one thing on ya mind, an' it aint love.
not here to listen to me, just to take,
got what you need, an' that's enough.
[bridge]
Just another shadow, through the door,
not the first or last, there'll be more.
Try not to get my hopes up too high,
only left with, another excuse to cry.
[chorus]
Just another cowboy on the make,
one thing on ya mind, an' it aint love.
not here to listen to me, just to take,
got what you need, an' that's enough.
[outro]
Maybe, God's got other plans for me,
happiness, ain't somethin' on his mind.
Not expectin', romeo in cowboy boots,
I'd settle for a man, who stays behind.

Brilliant lyrics and melody. It has my emotions all over the place.
The outro was a dagger, and I felt the sentiments.
"Maybe, God's got other plans for me,
happiness, ain't somethin' on his mind.
Not expectin', romeo in cowboy boots,
I'd settle for a man, who stays behind."
Have you ever thought about submitting your songs to the radio stations? I think people need to hear them.
I don't have much else to say but this is an amazing song.
Bravo!
