When A Cowboy's Heart Breaks

When a Cowboys heart breaks
He'll keep himself as closed in as his horses
When a Cowboys heart breaks
He'll try to drink his thoughts away
To cope with the pain

He'll break down your defenses
He'll put up all his fences
And he'll build a barbed wire high around his heart

But I, I can see it in his eyes
I can read between the lines across his face
He'll try and prove that he's a tough guy
And he'll lose what he loves
Trying to show off some false strength
Yeah, it's complicated
When a Cowboys heart breaks

When a Cowboys heart breaks
He'll spit out words that are sharper than
His old boot spurs
Ooh, when a Cowboys heart breaks
He's gonna try to shake it off
With Heather down the block

He'll put down my defenses
He broke down all my fences
Long enough to brand his name right on my heart

But I, I can see it in his eyes
I can read between the lines across his face
He'll try and prove that he's a tough guy
And he'll lose what he loves
Trying to show off some false strength
Yeah, it's complicated
When a Cowboys heart breaks

He broke down all my fences
The only thing that's left is
The ashes from the fire that he sparked

But I can see it in his eyes
I can read between the lines across his face
Yeah he'll try and prove that he's a tough guy
And he'll lose what he loves
Trying to show off some false strength
Yeah, it's complicated
When a Cowboys heart breaks
Ooh, when a Cowboys heart breaks
