Cowboy in the Distance

歌詞

She's running through the cornfields of New York City And I'm driving by the cornfields of Illinois And I wonder how the dream feels in New York City Same as the dream that I had in Illinois She's skating down the back roads of Joplin Missouri Skating down the avenues of New York City too And I wonder how the wheels sound in Joplin Missouri Same as the sweet singing wheels in New York do And she shines like a diamond To this runner in the night I'm a cowboy in the distance Waiting for the light There's a girl who's in love in Joplin Missouri There's a girl who's in love in New York just the same In love with the boys out chasing his dreams In love with a boy and she never knows his name There's a telephone that's ringing in Joplin Missouri There's a telephone that's ringing in New York plain as day Waiting for a call in Joplin in Manhattan, yeah Waiting for a call from the boy who ran away And she shines like a diamond To this runner in the night And I'm a cowboy in the distance He's waiting for the light She's running through the cornfields of New York City And I'm driving by the cornfields of Missouri it seems I wonder if she knows there's a cowboy in the distance And I wonder if she knows that she's in the cowboy's dreams And she shines like a diamond To this runner in the night I'm a cowboy in the distance Waiting for the light And she shines like a diamond To this runner in the night I'm a cowboy in the distance She's waiting for the light Just waiting for the light Just waiting for the light Just waiting for the light
