| He was born in the summer of his 27th year |
| Comin' home to a place he'd never been before |
| He left yesterday behind him |
| You might say he was born again |
| You might say he found a key for every door |
| When he first came to the mountains his life was far away |
| On the road and hangin' by a song |
| But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care |
| It keeps changin' fast, and it don't last for long |
| But the Colorade Rocky Mountain high |
| I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye |
| Rocky Mountain high |
| He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below |
| He saw everything as far as you can see |
| And they say that he got crazy once |
| and he tried to touch the sun |
| And he lost a friend but kept his memory |
| Now he walks in quiet solitude the forests and the streams |
| Seeking grace in every step he takes |
| His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand |
| The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake |
| And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high |
| I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply |
| Rocky Mountain high |
| Now his life is full of wonder |
| But his heart still knows some fear |
| Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend |
| Why they try to tear the mountains down |
| To bring in a couple more |
| More people, more scars upon the land |
| And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high |
| I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky |
| I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly |
| Rocky Mountain high |
| It's a Colorado Rocky Mountain high |
| I've seen it rain' fire in the sky |
| Friends around the campfire and everybody's high |
| Rocky Mountain high |
| Good Luck |
