The Last Cavallard

One more bite at the Butter Barn, and it's time to hit the road
The highway calls 'cause the horses ran, and I had to let 'em go
I'd look at you, and all I'd see were the bright lights in your eyes
I couldn't rope you like a bull with that Main Stage on your mind

Holding on at the rodeo is never all that hard
But keeping my grip on a life with you is never in the cards
I lifted you up whenever you were down, but you kept staring at the stars
Well, I'm all alone, you were the last cavallard

I'm five miles out, and the evening breeze is dancing in my hair
You're flying high with your fireworks, but I'm okay right here
I'm headed west, and I'm feeling blessed not to hear you singing so off-key
Well, the Festival stage might be your dream, but I've got a dream inside of me

And working late at that Lonely Lodge wasn't hard for me to do
But working it out with a dreamer and fool was like a mountain I couldn't move
I guess some horses were born to be wild
Well, honey, two can play that part
But you're free to roam, you were the last cavallard

Holding on at the rodeo was never all that hard
But keeping my grip on a life with you was never in the cards
I lifted you up whenever you were down, but you kept staring at the stars
Now I'm all alone, you're free to roam, I let you go

You were the last cavallard
