You drive and drive  
You pull up to your late fathers home
You cry, you whimper
A thunderstorm approaches
To let you know you're not alone

High noon in Colorado
But the sky is dark
You run for yer mama
And ask her to mend your broken heart

Lightning only flashes
Rain never shows
The promised rain could have washed away
The problems that continue to grow

Your childhood house is abandoned
Weeds all around
You step out of memory lane  
Wearing a frown

What more can you do
Than to try to move on
While the sparrows sit in Colorado
And sing your father's favorite song
