You said you still loved me

You just don't feel the same anymore.

That sentence rings in my ears

Breaks my heart every time I hear it.

My world revolved around you for the last few years

I always did things that made sense for us.

I can't tell if this is what I want for me

Or if I'm just reacting to my new freedom.

You know I'll always be your cowboy

And I've always been your fool.

If you'd just call and ask me to

I'd drop everything and come to you.

I've learned a lot about myself the last few weeks

I don't need you to survive.

That's why I think it means even more

That I want you here with me.

And maybe one day I'll call

Or maybe one day you will.

We both know your laugh

Melts my heart like butter.

Sometimes I wonder what would happen

If I just showed up at your doorstep.

Would we hug? Would we talk?

Would you stare at me until I left?

I wonder where you are today

What you're doing.

I wonder if you thinks the same things about me

Or if you're just worried I'm drinking myself to death.

One day I'll come see you when I'm passing through town

Or I'll make a deliberate decision and play it off like a whim.

Maybe I'll call and we'll go on a date

And I'll know it's time to quit playing cowboy.
