When I moved out to Colorado
I had a friend out there
Met my mountain girl, only I was a desperado
She had so much love to share
I took a lot of turns on that snowy mountain side
My heart just wasn't it
I wish it was for you

I tell myself that life just isn't very long
and I keep on moving
even when I hurt someone
It's just not very long

Then I met someone else, someone new
I very rarely got my rest
I stayed so high with you
I drank from your cup and did my best
You weren't ready
Going too deep
Nothing fit my soul
You needed lightness
All you got was something heavy

You tell yourself that life just isn't very long
and you keep on moving
even when you hurt someone
It's just not very long

Still looking for direction
This whole thing felt like balloons once
Maybe one day I'll strike gold
I know I will
Strike gold

Striking gold
I need someone (something?) to believe in
Someone to hear my voice
I looked at religion
But they don't give much of choice
I keep writing my own verses
And praying up above
Am I exactly where I am supposed to be
Looking for the one I love?
