Colder Weather

She'd trade Colorado if he'd take her with him

Closes the door before the winter lets the cold in

And wonders if her love is strong enough to make him stay

She's answered by the taillights shinin' through the window pane

He said, "I want to see you again

But I'm stuck in colder weather

Maybe tomorrow will be better

Can I call you then?"

She said, "You're ramblin' man

And you ain't ever gonna change

You've got a gypsy soul to blame

And you were born for leavin'"

At a truck stop diner, just outside of Lincoln

The night is black as the coffee he was drinkin'

And in the waitress' eyes he sees the same old light is shinin'

He thinks of Colorado and the girl he left behind him

He said, "I want to see you again

But I'm stuck in colder weather

Maybe tomorrow will be better

Can I call you then?"

She said, "You're ramblin' man

And you ain't ever gonna change

You've got a gypsy soul to blame

And you were born for leavin'

Born for leavin'"

Well, it's a windin' road

When you're in the lost and found

You're a lover, I'm a runner

And we go 'round and 'round

And I love you, but I leave you

I don't want you, but I need you

You know it's you that calls me back here, baby

"Oh, I want to see you again

But I'm stuck in colder weather

Maybe tomorrow will be better

Can I call you then?

'Cause I'm a ramblin' man

I ain't ever gonna change (I ain't ever gonna change)

Got a gypsy soul to blame

And I was born for leavin'

Born for leavin'"

When I close my eyes I see you

No matter where I am

I can smell your perfume through these whisperin' pines

I'm with your ghost again

It's a shame about the weather

But I know soon we'll be together

And I can't wait till then

I can't wait till then
