Colorado

Sit up
Put your shoes on
A few more miles and Colorado welcomes us
Just the way we thought it would

Slow down
I want to see this
Skip the highway
Take the back roads
What if we never drive back this way again

Tell me, can you see them stand tall?
Peaks rise to the snow caps and all
The switchbacks take us higher than we've been before
Teach us to remember what our lives are worth
Leave the evergreens down below
Run around like we've never seen snow
Playing games like the kids we used to know
Clear view looking down from the top of the world

Wake up
Put on your seatbelt
A little while and we'll be back home
Wondering why we ever turned around

Leaving
Was just a mistake
We found the answers we were needing
If we return someday, you know we've got to stay

Somewhere we can see them stand tall
Peaks rise to the snow caps and all
The switchbacks take us higher than we've been before
Teach us to remember what our lives are worth
Leave the evergreens down below
Run around like we've never seen snow
Playing games like the kids we used to know
Clear view looking down from the top of the world
In Colorado

I found my heart up in the mountains
The city just won't let me change
I only hope I can make it back there
And break from these urban chains

I found my heart up in the mountains
The city just won't let me change
I only hope I can make it back there
And break from these urban chains

I found my heart up in the mountains
The city just won't let me change
I only hope I can make it back there
And break from these urban chains

Somewhere we can see them stand tall
Peaks rise to the snow caps and all
The switchbacks take us higher than we've been before
Teach us to remember what our lives are worth
Leave the evergreens down below
Run around like we've never seen snow
Playing games like the kids we used to know
Clear view looking down from the top of the world
In Colorado
In Colorado
