Lyrics

I met a Cosmic Cowboy
Ridin' a starry range
He's a supernatural Plowboy
And He dressed up kinda strange
And at first, I didn't even see Him
Bein' out there on the run
Yeah, but that old hat that He's wearin'
He's shinin' brighter than the sun
And when my eyes adjusted
To the flashin' of His smile
Hey, I saw His invitation
He said, "Come on, Barry
We'll go ridin' for awhile"

(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)

We rode along together
For more 'n half a day
Right through the changin' weather
The sky was all turning gray
Chilly winds wеre blowin'
Cold was cutting deep
Yeah, then it startеd snowing
The trail was gettin' steep
I's just about to turn around
And head back the way we came
Somehow, without a sound
I heard Him call my name

(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)

Then lookin' up, I saw we w
High up on this ridge
And He took me by my arm
Lead me right over to the edge
Yeah, I's so scared
I couldn't find a single word to say
You know, there's 10,000 feet of empty air
And it's just about an inch away
But a million miles was out beyond
The wavin' of His hand
I was lookin' through His eyes
Right into another land

(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)

He said this is my Father's ranch
As far as you can see
(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)
He made it out of nothin'
Every branch and every tree
The stars, all the mountains
(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)
The rivers, the streams
The oceans, the fountains
And the valley of your dreams
I know that place you're lookin' for
(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)
That place you long to be
And the truth is, I'm the only door
You're gonna have to pass through Me
(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)

Bendin' back I tipped my hat
To look Him in the eye
But He just smiled and gave me confidence
"Go ahead and try."
Well, it was now or never
And I knew I had to start
So I took that step and I went fallin'
Straight in through His heart
The first thing that I noticed
Comin' out the other side
Hey all my fears had vanished
He taught me how to fly!

(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)

Ah, yeah, there's a Cosmic Cowboy
And he rides the starry range
He's a supernatural Plowboy
He is dressed up kinda strange
To think I nearly missed Him
Being out there on the run
But that old hat that he's wearin'
It's shinin' brighter than the sun
Yeah, when my eyes adjusted
To the flashin' of His smile
I saw His invitation
He said; "Come on, Barry
We'll go ridin' for awhile"

(Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night)
Whoo! Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night
Cowboy of the light
Shooting rainbows through the night...
