Michael Martin Murphey Song From Lonesome Dove
Lonesome dove, I hear your cry
And if I had wings to fly
I'd join you in your restless flight
There's no place for a lonesome dove to rest tonight
A rambler's heart is like a lonesome dove
Far away from his true love
He could not find his mate in flight
There's no place for a lonesome dove to rest tonight
On the wing, wandering
He flies on and on, his song to sing
Searching for his long lost love
Must he always be a lonesome dove
Like cowboys and bold outlaws
Riding for a long lost cause
Searching for the one true light
Our hearts feel just a lonesome dove tonight
Lonesome dove, we hear your cry
And if we had wings to fly
We'd join you in your restless flight
There's no place for a lonesome dove to rest tonight
