(carl jackson/larry cordle)
I hear a lonesome dove off in the distance
his cry echoes out through the hills
he's sad that his lover flew off with another
and i know the sorrow he feels
Lonesome dove we're not that different
you sing a sad song but you're not alone
you've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
i know how you feel lonesome dove
I've tried to run from the pain of his memory
but i can't find a place i can hide
and that old lonesome dove is gonna mourn for his love
no matter how far he flies
Lonesome dove we're not that different
you sing a sad song but you're not alone
you've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
i know how you feel lonesome dove
