The West Was Never Won

You can hear her name, it's a whisper in the wind And your soul knows where to find her And to ride along, and to ride along that trail that never ends Is to ride along beside her None have survived of the great and mighty men In vain they've tried to take her For her boundaries begin, at the point where heaven's end Seen only by her Maker That girl she was my wild west My vast and untamed wilderness One look would surely take your breath I know 'cause breathless I was left My eyes have seen and my tongue confess No man can conquer endlessness Her beauty's terror and it scares me to death No man can conquer endlessness When first I'd seen, when first I'd seen that fierce and fiery sun Get lost in her horizons I knew a cowboy's heart, that a cowboy's heart could belong to none Save for the dirt he dies on And oh, Lord I swear by the barrel of my gun Used only to defend her In the end that boundless land, The West was never won It was she who had surrendered That girl she was my wild west My vast and untamed wilderness One look would surely take your breath I know 'cause breathless I was left My eyes have seen and my tongue confess No man can conquer endlessness Her beauty's terror and it scares me to death, yeah But no man can conquer endlessness No man can conquer endlessness No man can conquer endlessness No man can conquer endlessness
