cowboy in the night

In the shadow of the mountain, where the rivers run wide,
A cowboy rides alone, with the stars as his guide.
With a horse by his side, and a hat pulled down low,
He roams the open plains where the wild winds blow.
[Chorus]
He's a cowboy in the night, beneath the moon so bright,
In the lonely wide expanse, he's searching for his chance.
With a campfire burning slow, and beans in the pot,
He lights up a smoke, in a world time forgot.
[Verse 2]
The echo of his footsteps on the rocky terrain,
With the whisper of the pines and the soft falling rain.
He's got stories in his heart and dust on his boots,
A life of solitude, with the earth as his roots.
[Chorus]
He's a cowboy in the night, beneath the moon so bright,
In the lonely wide expanse, he's searching for his chance.
With a campfire burning slow, and beans in the pot,
He lights up a smoke, in a world time forgot.
[Bridge]
There's a beauty in the silence, a peace in the air,
With the mountains standing tall, he knows freedom is there.
Though he's miles from anywhere, he's right where he belongs,
With the spirit of the west, he keeps moving along.
[Chorus]
He's a cowboy in the night, beneath the moon so bright,
In the lonely wide expanse, he's searching for his chance.
With a campfire burning slow, and beans in the pot,
He lights up a smoke, in a world time forgot.
[Outro]
In the end, he'll be remembered for the trails that he rode,
For the life he chose to live, by the cowboy code.
With his hat tipped low, and his eyes on the sky,
He'll ride on forever, beneath the mountain's sigh.
