[The Fray, Emmylou Harris - Boulder to Birmingham lyrics]
I don't want to hear a love song
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below me
But all that you can show me
Is the prairie and the sky
And I don't want to hear a sad story
Full of heartbreak and desire
The last time I felt like this
It was in the wilderness and
The canyon was on fire
And I stood on the mountain
In the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face
Well, you really got me this time
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive
I have come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move
Down out on ninety five
And pretend that it's the ocean
Coming down to wash me clean
To wash me clean
Baby, do you know what I mean
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face
And I stood on the mountain
In the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face
If I thought I could see
(If I thought I could see)
I could see your face
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below me
But all that you can show me
Is the prairie and the sky
And I don't want to hear a sad story
Full of heartbreak and desire
The last time I felt like this
It was in the wilderness and
The canyon was on fire
And I stood on the mountain
In the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face
Well, you really got me this time
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive
I have come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move
Down out on ninety five
And pretend that it's the ocean
Coming down to wash me clean
To wash me clean
Baby, do you know what I mean
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face
And I stood on the mountain
In the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face
If I thought I could see
(If I thought I could see)
I could see your face
