They say home is wherever you are, that's true But I am still a thousand miles away from you Highways and byways, the wheels keep turning The radio loud, the smiles, the grinning But I'm yearning for home Hotel room I left a poem on the stationary, left some towels on the floor I'm packing up my bags and my guitar to carry And I'm headed out the door I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home The Great American meditation Two hands on the wheels two eyes on the road Truck-stop sunsets and filling stations That's what you see when you're always on the go But I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home The city lights of Denver Up over yonder Lord I'm headed for the hills And if distance never ever made my heart grow fonder You know I would just stay still I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home Colorado, I'm headed home
