Lyrics

Dream of Colorado
(Written by Phil Christie)

I came from California
To learn about the land
To find myself in spirit
To know and understand
The glory of the mountains
The sunlight through the pines
The wild and open spaces
Above the timberline

I dream of Colorado
Where the mountains touch the sky
I dream of Colorado
Where golden eagles fly
I dream of Colorado
When I cannot find the sun
I dream of Colorado
Forever wild and free
Whenever life around me is undone
I dream of Colorado in the sun

A silver moon shines over
The Rio Grande trail
And far off in the distance
The Maroon Bells prevail
We camped along the hillside
As music filled the air
Joyful in the feeling
Of knowing he was there

I dream of Colorado
Where the mountains touch the sky
I dream of Colorado
Where golden eagles fly
I dream of Colorado
In winter shades of blue
I dream of Colorado
Rugged, wild, and free
Gentle as a river passing through
I dream of Colorado
My dream come true

Oh, it?s time for new beginnings
Time for making changes in my life

I dream of Colorado
When I cannot find the sun
I dream of Colorado
Forever wild and free
Whenever life around me is undone
I dream of Colorado, I dream of Colorado
I dream of Colorado in the sun
