To bring in a couple more
Now his life is full of wonder
More people, more scars upon the land
If he never saw an eagle fly
He know he'd be a poorer man
You talk to God, listen to the casual reply
Saw everything as far as you can see
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
But his heart still knows some fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
On the road and hangin' by a song
But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care
Is softer than a lullaby
He climbed cathedral mountains
Might say he found a key for ev'ry door
Rocky Mountain high
Everybody's high
Why they try to tear the mountains down
Friends around the campfire
Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
And he lost a friend but kept his memory
Rocky Mountain high
It's the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
His sight has turned inside
And he tried to touch the sun
Rocky Mountain high
And they say that he got crazy once
Rocky Mountain high
When he first came to the mountains his life was far away
Now, he walks in quiet solitude
Saw silver clouds below
Rocky Mountain high
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
Himself to try and understand
Seeking grace in every step he takes
Rocky Mountain high
Keeps changin' fast, it don't last for long
The Colorado Rocky Mountain high
The forests and the streams
The shadow from the starlight
Rocky Mountain high
Rocky Mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
