Colorado Blue

[Verse 1]
I drove you home that autumn day
To your mother's house
The paint was old, the dogs were barking
I sat upon the rug

[Chorus]
Oh, I think of you sometimes
Of the snow
And that Colorado winter blue

[Verse 2]
Your eyes were green, your skin was darker
Than the color of my own
We took a shower in the dark
Your mother wasn't home

[Chorus]
Oh, I think of you sometimes
Of the snow
And that Colorado winter blue

[Verse 3]
We watched the sunrise over town
From your neighboor’s roof
I remember taking photographs
In the cul-de-sac

[Chorus]
Oh, I think of you sometimes
Of the snow
And that Colorado winter blue

[Verse 4]
Then you headed east
And said her name
I read between the lines

[Verse 5]
I caught a plane to Denver
Your eyes had turned to stone
From that cold appartement window
I saw you fade into the snow

[Outro]
When you left me for her, oh oh oh
You left me in the snow
When you left me for her, oh oh oh
You left me in the snow
