Colorado Songtext

von Baccara

I was only seventeen
Just a small town beauty queen
When a handsome guy
Went and got my eye
Such a sight to see

He said such a pretty face
Ought to see a far-off place
A place where eagles fly
Where mountains touch the sky
A place so wild and free

Oh, oh, oh Colorado
You got me messing with a desperado
My mamma told me I was crazy to go

Oh, oh, oh Colorado
I gave my life away with nothing to show
And now I"m living with a man and a gun
I"m just a fool on the run

All the pretty things he said
Took my heart, went to my head
But the soft guitars
The nights beneath the stars
Were a fantasy

He had such a wanted face
Wanted in most every place
I"m nothing in his hands
This devil, not the man
That"s what he lies with me

Oh, oh, oh Colorado...
