LYRICS

At a motel outside Reno I unloaded house plants from the car A lady stopped to ask me If I was moving far And I said, just to Colorado She said she'd only been once And that her cousin lived in Boulder And then she said goodnight We ate breakfast at McDonalds Got a table right outside She threw all her food she's able to It landed far and wide I said oh well, the birds'll eat it But she made me pick it up And I guess that's just a fundamental Difference between us So let's get going and See what's up ahead Well I moved to Colorado With my wife and little girl We packed up in California Wanna show that girl the world And we'll start up in the mountains And work our way back down To where the sun sets on the ocean That curves all the way around Ran out of gas near Salt Lake City And as it started getting dark We looked around for accommodations Ended up shifting into park We laid down both of the backseats And the sunroof showed us stars And I thought whoever named it that Missed the best part We stopped to pick up snacks In god only knows where I sat alone in the stall They hadn't cleaned since Ronald Reagan And despite this I enjoyed a silent moment Although the air Reminded me that we all die And I don't wanna die here So let's get going and See what's up ahead Well I moved to Colorado With my wife and little girl We packed up in California Wanna show that girl the world And we'll start up in the mountains And work our way back down To where the sun sets on the ocean That curves all the way around To where the sun sets on the ocean That curves all the way around
