He was born in the summer of his 27th year |
| [00:16.50] |
Comin' home to a place he'd never been before |
| [00:23.50] |
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again |
| [00:28.50] |
You might say he found a key for every door |
| [00:33.50] |
|
| [00:34.50] |
When he first came to the mountains his life was far away |
| [00:40.50] |
On the road and hangin' by a song |
| [00:46.50] |
But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care |
| [00:52.50] |
It keeps changin' fast and it don't last for long |
| [00:56.50] |
|
| [00:58.50] |
But the Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [01:04.50] |
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| [01:10.50] |
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye |
| [01:19.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [01:25.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [01:32.50] |
He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below |
| [01:37.50] |
He saw everything as far as you can see |
| [01:43.50] |
And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun |
| [01:49.50] |
And he lost a friend but kept his memory |
| [01:53.50] |
|
| [01:55.50] |
Now he walks in quiet solitude the forest and the streams |
| [02:01.50] |
Seeking grace in every step he takes |
| [02:06.50] |
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand |
| [02:12.50] |
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake |
| [02:16.50] |
|
| [02:18.50] |
And the Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [02:24.50] |
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| [02:30.50] |
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply |
| [02:39.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [02:45.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [02:52.50] |
Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear |
| [02:57.50] |
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend |
| [03:03.50] |
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more |
| [03:09.50] |
More people, more scars upon the land |
| [03:13.50] |
|
| [03:15.50] |
And the Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [03:21.50] |
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| [03:27.50] |
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly |
| [03:36.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [03:41.50] |
It's Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [03:46.50] |
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| [03:52.50] |
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high |
| [04:01.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:07.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:13.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:19.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:24.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:30.50] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:36.50] |
|
