Western Skies Lyrics - Lost Together - Blue Rodeo

Well I'd rather be 

Walking through the tall pine trees 

High 

Up above Lake Louise 

And I'd rather be 

Chasing after shooting stars 

Than waiting for this dumb 503 T-T-C 

I'd like to see 

The sun set behind Saddle Mountain 

And listen to the wind whisper my name 

Yea this world and me don't fit 

One of us is going to have to quit 

Oh how I miss those western skies 

And I'd rather be 

Back in the Rocky Mountains 

Than sitting in some bar on Queen Street 

And I'd rather be 

Walking through the high meadow 

Than watching the latest war on my TV 

So please don't you stand in my way 

I just got to get out of this place 

If I waste another day 

I'm sure the sun will forget my name 

Oh how I miss those western skies 

Oh to see the sunset in her eyes 

Oh to see the sunshine in her eyes 

And I'd rather be 

Lying by the Bow River 

Just watching the clouds go by 

Yea I'd rather be 

Anywhere else than here tonight 

Than stuck in the city 

But through the pain 

Good things will come 

After the rain the sun 

But that don't mean much to me 

Stuck in the city 

Oh how I miss those western skies
