Lyrics
I was a cowboy and loner upon this land
Looking for something I couldn't quite understand
Started out in '91 thinking the world was mine
From Calgary to Utah leaving friends behind
Wrangling calves roping steer along my way
Each passing moment became yesterday
The years slipped by as I stumbled on through
Blinders on blocking my view
Like a seed being blown in the wind
With no place to land and dig in
The answer was deep in my soul
Just had to reach for it
Reach for it
Just had to reach for it
Met an old withered man down Mexico way
He'd traveled the world now grateful and gray
"It was a good life" he said "but nothing can replace
This old wooden rocker and its warm embrace"
So I had to rethink the empty road ahead
‘Cause I saw the truth in what he said
I turned my horse north back to the banks of the Bow
Built me a cabin found my rainbow
Like a seed being blown in the wind
With no place to land and dig in
The answer was deep in my soul
Just had to reach for it
Reach for it
Just had to reach for it
I was a cowboy and loner upon this land
