American Dream Come True

The Colors of Colorado
Wizardly white and light green
Ripped up t-shirts, punk rock bands in the basement
Restless and seventeen

‘Cause there’s always tomorrow
To do everything, did you know
That yesterday was your last chance
To take it slow

Little red shed in the back yard
A place for the garden tools
Trade New York City for somewhere outside of Boston
It’s the American dream come true

‘Cause there’s always tomorrow
To do everything, did you know
That yesterday was your last chance
To take it slow

The summer sky surrenders to fall
The autumn air gives way to the cold
So on and so forth they say
Somewhere between go and stay
There’s a place pretty close to the ground
Where you can settle without settling down

‘Cause there’s always tomorrow
To do everything, did you know
That yesterday was your last chance
To take it slow
