Tim McGraw - Telluride lyrics

When I was nineteen I threw
My stuff in the car
I headed up to the Rockies
Got a job at this bar
Selling beer to the locals
Just barely getting by
On the tips from the rich kids
There on daddy's dime
But when I saw her walk in one night
I knew that I would be all right in

Telluride, the snow falling down
I was waking up in that sleepy little town
In her eyes my world came so alive
I never will forget the moment she arrived
In Telluride

We spent that whole winter tangled
Up by a fire
Casting shadows on the cabin wall
Drowning in desire
Confessing all our secrets and
Laughing out loud
So high up on that mountain
I thought we would never come down
It was a dream we were living in
And I was the happiest I had ever been in

Telluride, the snow falling down
I was waking up in that sleepy little town
In her eyes my world came so alive
I never will forget the moment she arrived
In Telluride telluride, whoa oh oh

It ended just like a movie scene
And I had to play the part
Of the lover who stood there
And watched her leave
And me with the frozen heart

In Telluride, the snow falling down
Standing there alone in that
Sleepy little town
In her eyes, my world came so alive
I never will forget the day she said goodbye

Telluride, the snow falling down
I was waking up in that sleepy little town
In her eyes my world came so alive
I never will forget the moment she arrived
In Telluride
