Someday My Space Cowboy Will Come

Waiting on the sky for a sunset
Looking at the clouds saying not yet
So I say a little prayer ‘cause
Everything you don’t do you regret
Making my bed on the red sand
See the satellite and star dance
Whisper me another prayer ‘cause
I don’t believe in luck or circumstance
Chewing on a jalapeno
Walking past the old casino
Green cactus neon sign
Then I sit and wonder

Where do I go
Where do I go from here

Because a moving light will give a shadow life
And if the breeze is right, dead leaves will come alive
Someday something outside me
Is gonna give new life to me
I’ll be sitting, waiting in the sun
When my space cowboy comes
When my space cowboy comes to bring me home

Now in the desert nothing makes sense
Plastic pineapples or bowling pins
The chevrolet outside the motel
Brought me right out of the dust bowl
To another wasteland, another day
But still I hope and still I pray
Til the heavens open beneath my feet
Then I sit and wonder

How do I stay
How do I stay right here

Because a moving light will give a shadow life
And if the breeze is right, dead leaves will come alive
Someday something outside me
Is gonna give new life to me
I’ll be sitting, waiting in the sun
When my space cowboy comes
When my space cowboy comes to be at home
To be at home
