"Stonehurst Cowboy" lyrics - STEVE GUNN

[Refrain:]
Dear house near 69th
Old street looks the same
Trees are strong, faces are gone
Background still the same

Shadow in the sea of a dream to me
Stonehurst lonely
Back then friends, brothers and me, all got sent away
Came back feeling so undone, without much to say
Sat for hours, stared at your flowers, found ways to hide the pain
Stole your car, drove real far, no one can explain

[Chorus:]
Fastest hands, in the West
Call his name, he knows best
Tonight I'm past the world
Teach us right, all those steps
Before there's nothing left
For all those cowboys in the world

Meet me at the square of joy, fixed star in the night
No more questions, I have your mind, safe and dignified

[Refrain:]
Dear old house on 69th
Streets look the same
Trees are strong, faces are gone
My background is the same

[Chorus:]
Fastest hands, in the West
Call his name, he knows best
Tonight I'm past the world
Teach us right, all those steps
Before there's nothing left
For all those cowboys in the world
