If you stay or you go let it be God's will there'll be peace in your heart and the memories still these worries and sadness, can you take any more? Still you're stronger now than you were before
You don't know what you're feeling and you don't know why you're like a cowboy lost beneath an endless sky Weary exhaustion is catching up now as the moonlight's signaling the fading hour
Chorus: Go to sleep underneath the cottonwood tree let the cowgirl sing a quiet melody you'll wake in the morning to a different light so rest safe and warm wrapped in my love tonight
There's a mountain ahead and a canyon behind a million winding roads to the other side but God in is His wisdom knows the path that you need and He'll send you on with his mighty lead
So put a song in your heart, boy, and take it slow let love surround you everywhere you go then when the darkness steals the light of day remember that peace is just a dream away
