Stonehurst Cowboy - Steve Gunn

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

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

Dear old house on 69th

Streets look the same

Trees are strong, faces are gone

My background is the same

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
