[Verse 1] Take me home, Colorado To the Rockies, where the eagles go Aspen forests, silver snow Take me home, Colorado [Verse 2] He was born in old West Virginia Longed to chase horizons far and wide But the hollers and the rivers Held a peace he’d never known inside Now he’s feeling that Appalachian high [Verse 3] Mountain sunshine on my shoulder Peaks that kiss the bluest sky Every trail says come and wander In Colorado, I can fly [Verse 4] Once he dreamed of higher mountains Now he sees the beauty where he’s from Ancient hills and friendly faces Simple joys that fill his life with song Now he’s living that Appalachian high [Verse 5] Mountains call us, far or nearer Hearts are searching for the sound Rocky highs and country rivers Both are almost heaven bound
