Boulder To Birmingham lyrics

I don't want to hear a love song,

I got on this airplane just to fly,

And I know there's life below me,

But all that it can show me

Is the prairie and the sky.

And I don't want to hear a sad story

Full of heartbreak and desire.

The last time I felt like this

I was in the wilderness

And the canyon was on fire.

And I stood on the mountain

In the night and I watched it burn,

I watched it burn, I watched it burn.

I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham,

I would hold my life in his saving grace,

I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham,

If I thought I could see, I could see your face.

Well, you really got me this time,

And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive.

I have come to listen for the sound

Of the trucks as they move down

Out on ninety-five

And pretend that it's the ocean

Coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean.

Baby, do you know what I mean?

I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham,

I would hold my life in his saving grace,

I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham,

If I thought I could see, I could see your face,

If I thought I could see, I could see your face...
