He was born in the summer of his 27th year |
| [00:17] |
Comin＇ home to a place he＇d never been before |
| [00:24] |
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again |
| [00:29] |
You might say he found a key for every door |
| [00:34] |
|
| [00:35] |
When he first came to the mountains his life was far away |
| [00:41] |
On the road and hangin＇ by a song |
| [00:47] |
But the string＇s already broken and he doesn＇t really care |
| [00:53] |
It keeps changin＇ fast and it don＇t last for long |
| [00:57] |
|
| [00:59] |
But the Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [01:05] |
I＇ve seen it rainin＇ fire in the sky |
| [01:11] |
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye |
| [01:20] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [01:26] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [01:33] |
He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below |
| [01:38] |
He saw everything as far as you can see |
| [01:44] |
And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun |
| [01:50] |
And he lost a friend but kept his memory |
| [01:54] |
|
| [01:56] |
Now he walks in quiet solitude the forest and the streams |
| [02:02] |
Seeking grace in every step he takes |
| [02:07] |
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand |
| [02:13] |
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake |
| [02:17] |
|
| [02:19] |
And the Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [02:25] |
I＇ve seen it rainin＇ fire in the sky |
| [02:31] |
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply |
| [02:40] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [02:46] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [02:53] |
Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear |
| [02:58] |
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend |
| [03:04] |
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more |
| [03:10] |
More people, more scars upon the land |
| [03:14] |
|
| [03:16] |
And the Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [03:22] |
I＇ve seen it rainin＇ fire in the sky |
| [03:28] |
I know he＇d be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly |
| [03:37] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [03:42] |
It＇s Colorado rocky mountain high |
| [03:47] |
I＇ve seen it rainin＇ fire in the sky |
| [03:53] |
Friends around the campfire and everybody＇s high |
| [04:02] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:08] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:14] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:20] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:25] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:31] |
Rocky mountain high |
| [04:37] |
