Translation
Bilingual
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 to every door
ย
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
ย
Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby
Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
ย
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
ย
Now he walks in quiet solitude through 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
ย
Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
Talk to God and listen to his casual reply
Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
ย
Now he's full of wonder, but his heart still knows some fear
Of the simple things he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more
More people, more scars upon the land
ย
Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
No he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
Rocky Mountain high (Colorado)
