Colorado couldn't keep her from me
couldn't stand in between
Colorado is not as far as it seems
not as taken as me
not as taken as me
and we held the long and the steady run
teary eyed and left reeling from happy nights
under lit screens
I know I won't find any reason to go
that time won't pause or rewind to hold this girl any closer than
this mind that cries, "no,
I won't heed her hints of hazadry"
we spent days running round downtown
finding light spite countdown or harsh pause
in such plans
singing mountains might carry her up
but I'll lift her higher and I'll hold her tighter
I'll love her
I'll dream of waking up to her kiss
knowing she'll surely be missed
And Kristine said to me,
"Colorado couldn't hold me like this"
I know I won't find any reason to go
that time won't stop or rewind to hold this girl any closer than
this mind that cries no
I know I won't find any reason to go
that time won't stop or rewind to hold this girl any closer than
this mind that cries no
