Cowboy Of Dreams Lyrics - Bittersweet - Crosby & Nash

Saw a sign on the highway 

I was driving along, way home 

On a hilltop is where I belong 

I took a look at the hole 

Where my head used to be 

And I'll sing you a song 

That descended on me 

The way I live 

Determines the way 

My people survive 

Yes the way I live 

Determines the way 

My people survive 

So I went to the country 

To look up a friend 

'Cause I heard that the house 

And the barn had a blend 

I took a look at the hole 

Where the bird used to be 

And I'll sing him a song 

Because he sang one for me 

The way I live 

Determines the way 

My people survive 

Yes the way I live 

Determines the way 

My people survive 

And the names of the cowboys 

Will all blow away 

Like the dust off the desert 

On a hot windy day 

I've tried so hard to tell you 

In so many ways 

That I'm scared of the heartache and scenes 

With the cowboy of dreams
