You came around when you were down and needed healing I picked you up, kept warm, I didn't need a reason And I held on knowing all along you'd come to your wandering senses Cause there's just something about cowboys and fences I'll admit a little bit of my heart Was telling me you'd stay Hope for the best I took that bet Knowing you were born to ride away I'm the calm and you're the wind And that comes with consequences Cause there's just something about cowboys and fences I'll admit a little bit of my heart Was telling me you'd stay Hope for the best I took that bet Knowing you were born to ride away You better now Guess that's all that counts I knew the circumstances There's just something about cowboys and fences
