Lyrics

The Madison County Waltz He was a cowboy, the last one it seems A rider of sundowns and old, faded dreams The last of the cowboys, a child of the rain A rider of first light and old west-bound trains And Francesca remembers, through the years going by Four days with the cowboy and the late summer sky When Kincaid was rolling through the green summer land Into Madison County where the old bridges stand She was a dancer with dreams of her own And he was a dreamer who danced all alone They might have been wood smoke They might have been wind Or they might have been magic That won't come again Across the green rollin' land Out in Madison County Where the old bridges stand We need a lot more slow dancin' to old radio songs More brandy and candles as the nights move along We need a lot more old cowboys, out there on their own And a woman to remember them, when they're scattered and blown She was a dancer with dreams of her own And he was a dreamer who danced all alone They might have been wood smoke They might have been wind Or they might have been magic That won't come again So you might hear this song Across the green rollin' land Out in Madison County Where the old bridges stand.
