Lyrics

VERSE
Cowboys need wide open spaces with much room to roam
You know, they’re not much on shoelaces or comin’ home
But when they find a woman with dreams they can share
They go all in every step of the way there

PRE-CHORUS
(But) The stronger the love, the more painful the tear
Now his heart is in need of repair

CHORUS
(Yeah) He can mend a fence, but he’s not so sure about his heart
In the chain of events, it makes no sense, this fallin’ apart
He can mend a fence, but he’s not so sure about his heart

VERSE
He still rides the range, but now he’s feelin’ closed in
One thing about cowboys; it’s hard to pretend
His horse and his dog are still his best friends
In the end, he’ll depend on his own strength from within

Repeat PRE-CHORUS/Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
One day he might ride into town
Or maybe one night as the sun’s goin’ down

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Yeah, he can mend a fence, but he’s not so sure about his heart
