Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey Colorado, it was not so long ago
I left your mountain to try life on the road
Now, I'm finished with that race
It was much too fast a pace
And I think I know my place, Colorado
I wanna come home
[Verse 2]
There was a woman, but I left her far behind
I could have loved her, if I'd only had the time
Oh, but I stopped along my way
Just long enough to say
Lord, I'd really, really like to stay
But my lady, you know I've got to go
[Verse 3]
I was too young to know what I've done
I made my plans
But I was wrong, yes I was wrong
[Verse 4]
Hey Colorado, is it too late to change my mind?
I've done some thinkin'
And I'm tryin' hard to find
[Verse 5]
Oh, the way to come back home
Oh, I've been, so very long, alone
Won't you take care of your own?
Colorado, I think I'm comin' home
[Verse 6]
Wanna come home
Won't ya let me come home?
