Falling In Love With Colorado Lyrics - Singles - Eric Henning

She chose to spend the summer back in Boulder 

Simply made no sense to come on home 

For it seems her long time lover had 

gone and found another and 

left our heroine on her own 

First, she started wonderin' 

If she'd ever love again 

of find someone who knew her many moods and many ways 

Then she started wanderin' 

up the mountains/down again 

so it wasn't long 'till she found friend 

no one could take a way 

And she called one night to say . . . 

Chorus 

I am falling in love with Colorado 

and I'm calling, just to let you know 

that I'm filling up this empty space 

with the mountains tall and strong 

and I think it's clear that while I'm here 

I'm right where I belong. 

She started climbing in the foothills 

and made it cross the great divide 

for she learned that when you climb 

the most important thing you find 

ain't the view/but all that you 

have down deep inside 

And she learned what summers for 

swimming in the resevoir . . or 

climbing mighty mountains more than 14,000 feet 

And sometimes she would go 

walk down past Arapaho 

And see some friends that you know 

down on Peral Street 

And they'd all sing when they'd meet . . . 

Chorus 

I am falling in love with Colorado 

and I'm calling, just to let you know 

that I'm filling up this empty space 

with the mountains tall and strong 

and I think it's clear that while I'm here 

I'm right where I belong. 

Bridge 

Do you remember when you were just a kid 

And after the whole summer, you had to tell folks what you did? 

Well, school is over but there's still a lot to know 

Like all that you cann hold on to when you can let go . . . 

Chorus 

I am falling in love with Colorado 

and I'm calling, just to let you know 

you can feel free to follow me 

to the mountains tall and strong 

and I think it's clear that while I'm here 

I'm right where I belong.
