Lyrics

Rodeo Queen ©2023 Creative InRoads, LLC

Looking over the years / I regret some decisions
But, not the one / Where I fell in love with you

Just the right time / When half my heart was missing
You showed up on my doorstep / And, walked into my life

So, we made us a home / Where we could do some living
We could right any wrong / We had so much love for the giving

There were promises made / Our future clear before us
No doubt in our hearts / No one could stand in our way

Then we made some mistakes / And, most were forgiven
But, there's one you couldn't / We never had children

Now, you tell me it's too late / And, there's a wall that stands between us
You've made your decision / You are walking away (walking away)

Looking back through my tears / We've caused each other heartache
But, nothing ever hurt so much / As me losing you

-------- CHORUS:
Where did our love go / Hey, whatever happened to happy-ever-after
I've been told you're living with your cowboy
You're his new Rodeo Queen

My sweetheart on her saddle / That cowboy's best companion
Under his blanket / You're his new Rodeo Queen

(Musical Break - then Short Verse)

Looking over the years / Yeah, I regret some decisions
Like the time you said goodbye / You said goodbye

So, we ran out of time / Now, half my heart's gone missing
You shut that door / Then you walked out of my life

-------- CHORUS:
Where did our love go / Whatever happened to that happy-ever-after
I've been told you're living with your cowboy
You're his new Rodeo Queen

My sweetheart on her saddle / That cowboy's best companion
Under his blanket / You're his new Rodeo Queen
