| When I was nineteen I threw my stuff in the car
|
| I headed up to the Rockies, got a job at this bar
|
| Selling beer to the locals, just barely getting by
|
| On the tips from the rich kids, there on daddy’s dime
|
| But when I saw her walk in one night
|
| I knew that I would be all right in
|
| Telluride, the snow falling down
|
| I was waking up in that sleepy little town
|
| In her eyes my world came so alive
|
| I never will forget the moment she arrived
|
| In Telluride
|
| We spent that whole winter tangled up by a fire
|
| Casting shadows on the cabin wall, drowning in desire
|
| Confessing all our secrets and laughing out loud
|
| So high up on that mountain, I thought we would never come down
|
| It was a dream we were living in
|
| And I was the happiest I had ever been in
|
| Telluride, the snow falling down
|
| I was waking up in that sleepy little town
|
| In her eyes my world came so alive
|
| I never will forget the moment she arrived
|
| In Telluride
|
| Telluride, whoa-oh-oh
|
| It ended just like a movie scene
|
| And I had to play the part
|
| Of the lover who stood there and watched her leave
|
| And me with the frozen heart
|
| In Telluride, the snow falling down
|
| Standing there alone in that sleepy little town
|
| In her eyes, my world came so alive
|
| I never will forget the day she said goodbye
|
| Telluride, the snow falling down
|
| I was waking up in that sleepy little town
|
| In her eyes my world came so alive
|
| I never will forget the moment she arrived
|
| In Telluride |
