Lyrics Prefab Sprout

Prefab Sprout

Cowboy Dreams

Cowboy dreams

cowboy dreams

You give me cowboy dreams.

Love's a silver bullet that

blows your world apart

I wanna be remembered as an outlaw

as the boy who stole your heart

I wanna be the guy who wears

the white hat

then rides across the plain

I'm gonna be your enigmatic stranger

honey, you are looking at your Shane.

Chorus:

Cowboy dreams

cowboy dreams

you give me cowboy dreams.

If ever you're in trouble,

if ever you are down

I'm gonna be the hanging judge and sheriff

I'm gonna ride your troubles out of town

you're looking at a mountain,

you're looking at the law

you're looking at a six-gun legend

fastest on the draw.

Chorus

Cowboy dreams

you give me cowboy dreams

yippi-ay-a

I can make you happy,

it's easier than it seems

I'm gonna ambush at sundown

I'm gonna give you cowboy dreams.

Chorus

Cowboy dreams

you give me cowboy dreams

yippi-ay-a

Love's a silver bullet that blows

your world apart

I wanna have it written on my tombstone:

" Here lies the boy who stole your heart "
