Sew your skirt lace out of time
While I write the words to rhyme
Just what I am thinking
Just what I should say
If I have to go I'd rather stay

Colorado canyon girl who set me free
Brown eyes in the morning looking back at me
And just for that one moment
You're all that I see
Searching for some other place to be

More than anyone can try I hope you'll see
That I belong
Standing right before your eyes
If you can take the time to find where I went wrong
Then I think you just might realize

So sew your skirt lace and I'll go home
But not quite where I started from
And take it so you'll feel it
And take it so you'll know
Take one long last look before I go

More than anyone can try I hope you'll see
That I belong
Standing right before your eyes
When you have the time to see it's been
Too long, then I'll come on back to Boulder Skies
