I was waiting for the change
It was like a lighted match
had been tossed into my soul
After taking every detour
Getting lost and losing track
I could not find my way back
After driving out the memory
Of the way things might have been
We were rolling through the Rockies
We were up above the clouds
When a station outta Jackson
And it seemed to fit the moment
And the moment seemed to freeze
When we turned the music up
And there was a God in heaven
And the world made perfect sense
We were young and were in love
And we were easy to convince
We were headed straight to Eden
It was just around the bend
Though I have forgotten all about it
I guess something must have happened
And we must have said goodbye
And my heart must have been broken
Though I can't recall just why
Well, for all the miles between us,
and for all the time that's passed,
you would think I hadn't gotten very far
And I hope my hasty heart
will forgive me just this once,
That's just a lot of water,
underneath the bridge I burned,
and there's no use in backtracking,
around corners I have turned.
Still I guess some things we bury,
they're just bound to rise again.
Yeah, and even if the whole
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
