Rocky Mountain High

Hello! I know I said I'd post the snow storm pictures, and I will but right now, I have a song to share:) My mom, dad and I all love to listen to John Denver radio and Mom was listening to it this afternoon and so I decided to share one of my favorites and I'll do more later:) First up..............Rocky Mountain High

  He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Comin' 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 for every 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 keep's changin' fast and it doesn'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 lullabye
Rocky mountain high

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 tried to touch the sun
  And he lost a friend but he kept his memory

Now he walks in quiet solitude the forest and the streams
  Seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside him 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
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply
  Rocky mountain high

Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear
  Of a simple thing he can not comprehend
When 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
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never say an eagle fly
  Rocky mountain high

It's the Colorado rocky mountain high
  I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high
  Rocky mountain high
