words and music by Rick Paul

From the single Cheyenne

I met her at the Frontier Days Rodeo
She was sittin’ on a bronc, rarin’ to go
And the glimmer in her eyes
Shinin’ through the dust
Told me she and I had to become us

Cheyenne was the moon above the mountains
And you know that girl was everything to me
But I guess I never told her
And Wyoming couldn’t hold her
‘Cause she left Cheyenne the same way she left me

That first spark turned into a ragin’ love affair
And I got thinkin’ she’d always be there
Between the softness of her touch
And the fire’s glow
Oh, how was I to know

That Cheyenne was the moon above the mountains
And you know that girl was everything to me
But I guess I never told her
And Wyoming couldn’t hold her
‘Cause she left Cheyenne the same way she left me

You can’t rope the moon
And rodeos move on
But I never dreamed that one day she’d be gone

Cheyenne was the moon above the mountains
And you know that girl was everything to me
But I guess I never told her
And Wyoming couldn’t hold her
‘Cause she left Cheyenne the same way she left me

Oh, she left Cheyenne
Yeah, she left Cheyenne
She left Cheyenne the same way she left me
