Colorado

Oh, the night time comes on slow in Colorado Mountains of blue and green Stars like to whisper little things And the moon always sings her song to me Saying, "Boy, when you look at the horizon Won't you tell me what it is you see? Do you have to make up something from nothing Or is it just the way you knew it to be?" Singing "Boy, you're gonna break her heart If not now, then some time along the way Well, there might be a palace in this fairytale, I know But boy, you're gonna break her heart Oh, boy, you're gonna break her heart" I told the moon, he lives so far away and lonesome "To you, the Earth's just a spinning ball of clay Where the sky falls, the land is ever changing From the mountains to the foothills and the plains And the morning sky is rich and filled with color Sun comes up to even out the day When it goes down, that tapestry's painted Is sure to go as quickly as he came" I know I'm gonna break her heart If not now, then some time along the way Well, there might be a palace in this fairytale, I know But I know I'm gonna break her heart Oh, I know I'm gonna break her heart Oh, in the evening sky, won't you tell me why I'm going away so long? Come the early morning hours, I'll be miles and miles away from my home Oh, I know I'm gonna break her heart I'm gonna break her heart, I'm gonna break her heart
