Colorado Lyrics

She said, lately, I've been waiting here at home

Still holding on to the promises you said you'd keep

And I'm going crazy, cause I can't stand to be alone

This house just ain't no home if you're not here with me

And he said, baby, I'm sorry you feel this way

I can tell you half the things you say aren't true

She said, maybe, but I can't take it anymore

My tires are pointing north and that ain't gonna change

Cause I can still make Colorado if I leave right now

Just to spare us both the sorrow of drawing this whole thing out

And baby, I hate to leave like this

But my heart is set on Colorado

Well, she drove up Route 87

While salty tears were running down her face

And he rushed home

But when he ran through the kitchen door

He found a note on the floor and inside it read

I can still make Colorado if I leave right now

Just to spare us both the sorrow of drawing this whole thing out

And baby, I hate to leave like this

But my heart is set on Colorado
