When I was nineteen I threw my stuff in the car

Headed up to the rockies, got a job at this bar

Sellin' beer to the locals, just barely gettin' 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'd be alright in



Chorus:

Telluride

The snow fallin' 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 the fire

Castin' shadows on the cabin wall drownin' in desire

Confessin' all our secrets, laughin' out loud

So high up on that mountain, I thought we'd never come down

It was a dream we were livin' in

I was the happiest I'd ever been in ...



Chorus:



Telluride

The snow fallin down

Waking up with her in that sleepy little town

In her eyes my world came so alive

I never will forget all those sleepless nights in Telluride



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 a frozen heart in ...



Chorus:



Telluride

The snow fallin' down

Standin' there alone in that sleepy little town

In her eyes my world came so alive

I never will forget that day she said goodbye in ...



Repeat Chorus
