Josh Joplin Group – I Am Not The Only Cowboy lyrics

And it starts like this
We crave for the kissed
By a moment complete
And it's happiness
We crawl away from the things
That we wish to escape
That lead us to think that we are not awake
We are ourselves
Despite ourselves
This place gets smaller
As the universe swells
We come to terms eventually
eventually
eventually

I am not the only cowboy
In this one horse metaphor
And I am not the only lifeguard
Who's washed up on the shore
Wake me up
Take me out
Call me down
When I'm in doubt
And I'm in doubt every day

Words are like weight
With density and shape
Modifying forms
They evaporate
You can choose the truth
You can listen to light
You can lead the charge
And still lose the fight
Far be it from me
To claim anything
For I am just one
In a state of being
I come to terms eventually
Eventually
Eventually

I am not the only proverb
That never really fits
And I am not the only caufield
That's catching more than kids
Wake me up
Take me out
Call me down
When I'm in doubt
And I'm in doubt

And so it ends
As it begins
As everything that is infinite ascends
Into it's time
All things pass
All things fade
All things last
You are yourself
Despite of yourself
This world grows smaller
As the universe swells
We come to terms eventually
Eventually
Eventually

And I am not the only boxer
That hasn't words to write
And I am not the only poet
Who's much too scared to fight
Wake me up
Take me out
Call me down
When I'm in doubt
And I'm in doubt every day

na na-na na-na
na na-na na-na
na na-na na-na
na na-na na-na

And it starts like this
(na na-na na-na)
Bring the kids to bed
(na na-na na-na)
You feel complete and it's happiness
(na na-na na-na)
We are ourselves
(na na-na na-na)
eventually
eventually
eventually
(na na-na na-na)

I am not the only cowboy
(na na-na na-na)
In this one horse metaphor
