Verse

Colorado was so nice,

 but I'm Minnesota's son

 Even when the cold winds blow

 in the darkness and the light

 And the young folks search for meaning here

 and the old folks know there's none

 Out your window you can see the world

 Babe it's turning, and it's gone

Chorus

And the stars at night,

why do they make you cry?

Don't you think that I'll be coming home?

Verse

Well it's not like Sunny, Monterrey

in all the Steinbeck books you read,

Where the hobos know the secrets and

the law turns their head

We are as close to paradise

even though you might not hear it said,

And the Methodists all bring a dish to share

with the ashes on their head

Chorus

And when the sun's in the sky,

we'll have a class outside,

Why do you think that I can be so cold?

Verse

I'm not scared of much here anymore,

wait, friends, that was a lie

'Cause I'm scared to death of losing you,

to be alone, high and dry

Chorus

And I know you worry,

about time and money,

but don't you know those things, they come and go?

END!!!
