Down in the valley
Where the old cowboys go
Somewhere in the past
Long shadows grow
Sometimes in a new day
There's a promise of everything
But in the quiet hours round sunset
You might hear the bullets ring for me
Back through the mist of time
There is a light
That shines upon the dreams that haunt you
In the dead of night
Down in the valley
With the ghosts of years gone by
Steps a man out of the darkness
With a fire behind his eyes for me
I've been this way before
But I'm back now to settle any score
I've been this way before
I've come back to even up the score
Down in the valley
All time stands still
One stone to throw me
Two birds to kill
And one day in a future
Where all debts are paid
Steps a man into the past
As we watch the daylight fade
Down in the valley
