lyrics

I park the car by the river
One of our rivers
Of course this song would come on
I let it play by the river
I wade way into the river
Just to stand up neck deep boots n’ all
As the current crashing past me lashes
Both arms red and raw
But all the rivers in Colorado couldn’t wash you off of my mind
Not that I’m trying, just a thought though
Might be nice to keep from crying like all the rivers in Colorado
You would float down in my arms
Now you’re gone and though they know that
These stupid arms still hope to hold back
All the rivers in Colorado
Still the white river
Still the night river
Still the silver swordplay in the sun
Still the crystal blue clear, muddy root beer
Colored rivers run
But all the rivers in Colorado…
John is on the radio
But i’m at an all time Rocky Mountain low
And all the rivers in Colorado…
…Now you’re gone i get it though
I’ve got to learn to let it go like
All the rivers in Colorado
That old Gibson I sold will hopefully hold us through winter
It’s gonna get cold girl, but I’m going gold with you
Little work on this last verse, then I’ll come down to dinner
Reheat a dream with some hell in the meantime blues
Right at home in-between
Find me honing a dream
While i’m moaning the meantime blues
After dinner and dishes i sit down and switch on the TV
And unfreeze as the chorus occurs to me:
Rock’ll burden coal until the coal begins to sing
Every crushing blow is ever-focusing a dream
