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?

It's Not Long
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?
