He was born in the summer of his twenty-seventh year

Coming home to a place he'd never been before

He left yesterday behind him

You might say he was born again

You might say he found a key to ev'ry door.

When he first came to the mountains his life was far away

On the road and hangin' by a song

But the string's already broken, and he doesn't really care

It keeps changin' fast, and it don't last for long

But the Colorado Rocky Mountain high

I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky

The shadow from the starlight

Is softer than a lullaby

Rocky mountain high (Colorado)

Rocky mountain high (Colorado)

He climbed cathedral mountains

He saw silver clouds below

He saw everything as far as you can see

And they say that he got crazy once

And he tried to touch the sun

And he lost a friend but kept his memory

Now he walks in quiet solitude

The forests and the streams

Seeking grace in every step he takes

His sight has turned inside

Himself to try and understand

The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake

And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high

I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky

Talk to God and listen to the casual reply

Rocky mountain high (Colorado)

Rocky mountain high (Colorado)

Now his life is full of wonder

But his heart still knows some fear

Of a simple thing, he cannot comprehend

Why they try to tear the mountains down

To bring in a couple more

More people, more scars upon the land

And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high

I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky

He knows he'd be a poorer man

If he never saw an eagle fly

Rocky mountain high

Colorado rocky mountain high

I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky

Friends around the campfire

And everybody's high

Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)

Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)

Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)

Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)

Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
