I Guess He?d Rather Be In Colorado
I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
He'd rather spend his time out where the sky looks like a pearl after a rain
Once again I see him walkin Once again I hear him talking to the stars he makes
and asking them for bus fare
I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
He'd rather play his banjo in the morning when the moon is scarcely gone
In the dawn the subways comin in the dawn I hear him hummin'
Some old song he wrote of love in Boulder Canyon
I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
I guess he'd rather work out where the only thing you earn is what you spend
In the end up in his office
In the end a quiet cough is all he has to show
He lives in New York City(Lisa Silver/Mary Beth Anderson/Carol Grace Anderson)
There抯 a woman at home, day after day
Takes the kids to school and there抯 bills to pay
Sends her husband to work with a kiss on the cheek
They get by, but they hardly speak at all
They抳e built too many walls
And she knows that things aren抰 right
But she never lets it show
And she wonders where he goes at night
But she doesn抰 really want to know
There抯 a woman alone on the edge of town
Works a fancy job till the sun goes down
She loves a man who抣l never be free
But she waits by the phone cause he promised he would call
Why did she ever fall
And she knows that things aren抰 right
But she never lets it show
And she wonders if he抯 home tonight
But she doesn抰 really want to know
It抯 a three way tie
Nobody wins everybody cries
Is anybody ever satisfied
In a three way tie
There抯 a man who means to do his best
But when you love two women they each get less
He knows his heart should be at home
But his fire burns for the woman aloneè“…o he calls
He抎 like to have it all
And he knows that things arenæÃ
