Jimmy Buffett
A Mile High in Denver
[Verse 1]
Sittin' on a pocket full of hard-earned wages
Lookin' at the world through magazine pages
I heard a lot about the mountains
And the Colorado range
[Verse 2]
Made this stop for personal reasons
Didn't know I'd catch the changin' of the seasons
Winter dictates everything
From frost to naked trees
[Chorus 1]
I'm about a mile high in Denver
Where the rock meets timberline
I've walked this ground from town to town
Just to finally call it mine
[Verse 3]
Lookin' for the cloud with a Styrofoam lining
Hopin' that the sun will keep on shinin'
Leading me to distant peace
That waits so patiently
[Verse 4]
Need a little love to try some givin'
Try a little love and then start livin'
Things I feared so long ago
When everything was wrong
[Chorus 2]
I'm about a mile high in Denver
Where the rock meets timberline
I've walked this ground from town to town
Tonight I'll call it mine
[Refrain]
Tonight I'll call it mine
[Verse 1]
Sittin' on a pocket full of hard-earned wages
Lookin' at the world through magazine pages
I heard a lot about the mountains
And the Colorado range
[Verse 4]
Need a little love to try some givin'
Try a little love and then start livin'
Things I feared so long ago
When everything was wrong
[Chorus 3]
I'm about a mile high in Denver
Where the rock meets timberline
Where God and trees create the breeze
Tonight I'll call it mine
[Refrain]
Tonight I'll call it mine
Tonight I'll call it mine
Tonight I'll call it mine
Tonight I'll call it mine
