[Verse 1] We came so far, me and my lone star baby Leavins so hard but this ol heart is breakin Come mornin Im Denver bound Gonna set my sights on higher ground [Chorus] Why not Colorado Far away across the Great Divide High above the sorrow, who needs love above the timber line Why die in Amarillo, oh [?] just as quiet as the Texas plain Let no memory follow Ill be gone tomorrow Why not Colorado [Verse 2] The love we made here has got to stay here But not me Im gonna trade tears when he plays Where I wont be Some fool in a dust bowl town Prayin that youll come around [Chorus] Why not Colorado Far away across the Great Divide High above the sorrow, who needs love above the timber line Why die in Amarillo, oh [?] just as quiet as the Texas plains Let no memory follow Ill be gone tomorrow Why not Colorado [Bridge] Ive got friends who say that a heart heals fast in Mexico But I need rain or snow to bury the memory of one Texas love [Chorus] Why not Colorado Far away across the Great Divide High above the sorrow, who needs love above the timber line Why die in Amarillo, oh [?] just as quiet as the Texas plains Let no memory follow Ill be gone tomorrow Why not Colorado [Tag] Let no memory follow Ill be gone tomorrow Why not Colorado
