FAWM: "This Poor Cowboy"

This Poor Cowboy

Lyrics

This Poor Cowboy
It’s your wish and I must leave you
Though you know I have loved you well
I’ll not cry, for that might grieve you
Although my broken heart might tell
Although my broken heart might tell
Soon a cowboy here will charm you
Smooth words and tales he might employ
But if at times arms don’t warm you
Please don’t forget this poor cowboy
Please don’t forget this poor cowboy
(Instrumental)
Happy he will be to please you
With romance that you will enjoy
But if in time grief besets you
Please don’t forget this poor cowboy
Please don’t forget this poor cowboy
Dear, how long will you forget me
It would be wrong if death destroys
But cold death itself will get me
If you forget this poor cowboy
If you forget this poor cowboy

Wow! Country music is very far from what I usually hear, but I really enjoyed this one. The first line got me hooked, and I like how the story evolves (for her at least) and we get to see how the narrator is still in love with her despite she has apparently moved on.
