 Well, it's true he'd always been a traveler
                           
 The kind a woman never tries to rope
                      
 Maybe he never really loved me
                              
 The truth is, I didn't want to know

                                     
 Oh 'cause that just would have made it harder
                                        
 To find a smile when it was time to let him go


                    
 Maybe he wants to be cowboy
                       
 Lord I know how much he loves to roam
                             
 And I can't say that I really blame him, oh
                    
 But someday even cowboys go home

           
 And I saved all my love letters
                     
 If I ever sent them he'd see
                        
 That's the hardest that I've ever
                             
 Tried not to let somebody love me


                        
 Maybe if he knew all my secrets
                            
 Maybe he could write another song
                          
 And sure it might be a sad story
                                
 But maybe with the ending that I wanted all along

                                        
 'Cause I saved all my pennies for the well
                            
 It was just my wishes that were wrong


                    
 Maybe he wants to be cowboy
                       
 Lord I know how much he loves to roam
                             
 And I can't say that I really blame him, oh
                   
But someday even cowboys go home

           
 And I saved all my love letters
                     
 If I ever sent them he'd see
                        
 That's the hardest that I've ever
                     
 Tried not to let somebody love me


                   
 Maybe I'm just wasting time
                  
 Living life out all alone
         
 But one thing I know
              
 Hearts don't break on their own
                                        
 And that's why we keep wandering down this road


                    
 Maybe he wants to be cowboy
                       
 Lord I know how much he loves to roam
                             
 And I can't say that I really blame him, oh
                    
 But someday even cowboys go home

           
 And I saved all my love letters
                     
 If I ever sent them he'd see
                        
 That's the hardest that I've ever
                                 
 Tried not to let somebody love me,    oh, hey
