Shed my skin since you came in,
Where do you end and I begin?
Awoke my senses yet you stopped time,
You took me to a deeper high,
The essence of my hopes and fears,
Creation of my muddled dreams

Cowboy Style,
With a peaceful smile,
You are from the temple 
Won't you stay a while

Found my voice to have my say,
You take me close to far away,
And now I find and now I feel,
The ordinary is surreal,
Peace and terror all in one,
My future life has just begun

Cowboy style,
With a peaceful smile,
You are from the temple 
Won't you stay a while 
Won't you stay a while

Won't you stay a while

I am frightened I'm aroused,
I'm enlightened to the now

Cowboy style
Cowboy style

Cowboy style,
With a peaceful smile,
You are from the temple 
Won't you stay a while
