Started as a picture on my dashboard Never pictured what it'd turn into I'd never given up But I guess I'm giving up because of you Something in me says I'm starting over Something in me saying I ain't through Once a mustang on the run Tryna beat that setting sun The highway calls for some but not for me Once a bullet in a barrel Straying from that straight and narrow Now a whisper in the wind, boy, let it be It's a heartbeat, it's a breath It's a new life and the death of a cowboy Now that I know I got you home waiting Honey, how am I supposed to ride away? I found my missing piece So there ain't nothing left for me to chase You're my resting place Once a mustang on the run Tryna beat that setting sun The highway calls for some but not for me Once a bullet in a barrel Straying from that straight an narrow Now a whisper in the wind, boy, let it be It's a heartbeat, it's a breath It's a new life and the death of a cowboy It's a heartbeat, it's a breath It's a new life and the death Once a mustang on the run Tryna beat that setting sun The highway calls for some but not for me Once a bullet in a barrel Straying from that straight and narrow Now a whisper in the wind, boy, let it be It's a heartbeat, it's a breath It's a new life and the death of a cowboy
