[Verse 1]
Dear Rodeo
I'd be lying if I tried to tell you I don't think about you
After all the miles and the wild nights that we been through
Lord knows we had a few
[Verse 2]
Dear Rodeo
I'd like to say that I took the reins and rode away
No regrets, no left-unsaids, just turn the page
Oh, but you know better, babe
[Chorus]
'Tween them almost-had-'ems and broken bones
The dream of a buckle I'll never put on
I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it
But somehow the highs outweigh the lows
And I'd do it all again even though we both know
I'd still have to let you go
[Verse 3]
So dear Rodeo
I tried like hell to tell myself it was all your fault
I held on tight with all my might, I just couldn't hang on
And that's hard to hang your hat on
[Chorus]
'Tween them almost-had-'ems and the broken bones
The dream of a buckle I'll never put on
I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it
But somehow the highs outweigh the lows
And I'd do it all again even though we both know
I'd still have to let you go
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 4]
Dear Rodeo
I'd like to think you miss me too, but I know you don't
Oh, but that don't change the past and that don't change the truth
I'm still in love with you
Dear Rodeo
