Cowboy and Songbird - Lyrics

Gail Swanson

Spider Moccasin - Artist
Songbird she wakes in the morning, day settles in
She picks up her note on the window and waits by the wind
As she’s struck by a melody, sounds like a symphony
Wonders why no one can hear
She tucks it up safe to her wing and the cowboy appears.
He says promise me baby, promise me you’ll never change
You’ll never stop riding wild horses out in the rain
You’ll never stop dreaming your dream, the song will remain
She closes her eyes and she sings him her tearful refrain
Catch me I’m falling again
Will the wind take me in
Can you hold me and set my heart free
Catch me I’m falling again
Will the wind take me in to the arms of the cowboy I see
Cowboy he lives in the water, he lives on the land
She knows that he’s been here forever, he reads from her hand
And he tries to be lonely but he’s not the only one
Feels like he’s losing the fight
‘Cause he’s drawn to the girl with the guitar, the songbird
    in flight
And like thoughts through the air like the gusty blue wind
    through the trees
And like the wave through her heart that brought songbird
    to her knees
Don’t try to understand, know that it’s in the hands of destiny
Cowboy and Songbird, Wind and the Sea
Catch me I’m falling again
Will the wind take me in
Can you hold me and set my heart free
Catch me I’m falling again
Will the wind take me in to the arms of the cowboy I see
