When I was a girl in Colorado
Rivers danced on canyon walls
Paintbrush nodded in the springtime
I could hear the bluebirds' calls
When I was a girl in Colorado
Winter held me in its arms
Summers rocked me like a lover
I could never come to harm
When I was a girl in Colorado
I could conquer anything
I could fly with wings of silver
I could whisper, I could sing
Will you take me to the mountains
Before another summer ends
We can catch the outbound zephyr
We can travel like the wind
When I moved out to the desert
Forty years to lose my soul
Somewhere back there in her rivers
Colorado made me whole
When I go back to the mountains
I always find a windy hill
Watch the sunset over Long's Peak
Ski those slopes and feel the thrill
