Telluride

She wore a green windbreaker, I guess it was her brother's 
And even though I never knew she wasn't like the others 
The weather's right and the stars align 
She never knew the answer 
She only knew what colors to choose 
In all the time she chanced it 

Its head was millions of miles behind her now 
She never lost, but he never found 
(Like to see) the colors of the sound 
Her eyes were red and his sight was poor 
And I'll never lose the longing for 
Its head was millions of miles behind her now 
She never lost, but he never found 
(Like to see) the colors of the sound 
Her eyes were red and his sight was poor 
And I'll never lose the longing for 

Telluride 
I met her on the other side

She wore a green windbreaker, it must have been her brother's 
And even though I never knew she wasn't like the others 
The weather's right and the stars align

She only knew what colors to choose

Its head was millions of miles behind her now 
She never lost, but he never found 
(Like to see) the colors of the sound 
To lose what lays outside your door 
And never lose the longing for 

Telluride 
I met her on the other side 
Telluride 

Telluride... 
Whitewalled trees on a mountainside 
Rural scenes and open skies 
And photographs of all the life 
That only lives in Telluride
