Living In The Sky (The Colorado Song)

Words: Crawford, DiBenedetto, Ernst, Kampman, Morrell

Music: Jon Ernst

Appears on Now What

 

Colorado memories dance through my mind

Like the swirling wind through tumbleweeds

Take me back to solitude among the forest pines

Down to secret winding streams

Along the foothills, running free

 

Colorado – Living in the sky

Colorado – The mountain winds rush by

Colorado – I will come back to you

Colorado – It’s where we’re going to
 

Come to the higher places, the clear air rises above

Climb to the crest to see the plains roll away below

We know there are mountains higher still

 

Colorado – Living in the sky

Colorado – The mountain winds rush by

Colorado – I will come back to you

Colorado – It’s where we’re going to
 

A cabin in the snow for us

We will go back to the sticks soon

After all the mountains show us

A sun will go down in an afternoon

I’d rather see it in Colorado

It’s beauty has melted in my mind

 

The mountain winds, the rushing waters

Blowing snows in the dead of winter

Evergreens dancing in the big sky’s sun

Summer thunder’s rainbows and her hail

 

Colorado – Living in the sky

Colorado – The mountain winds rush by

Colorado – I will come back to you

Colorado – It’s where we’re going to

 

Colorado, God’s country

Majestic beauty all around abounds

Come view this scenic wonder and you’ll understand

This is a paradise found!
