this glass embrace - colorado lyrics
[verse 1]
you would have been happy
the first thing i did was start praying
for a moment, i laughed at the thought of me praying for you
my faith is imperfect, i know
but there’s one thing i’m sure of
i learned from you most of what i ever learned about truth
[chorus]
you were a gunslinger
to us you were a legend
i never once heard you speak a word
that wasn’t spoken with love
you were always so sure
that we would make you proud
and i hope you were
i hope you are, now
[verse 2]
the strength in her voice on the phone
made my own feel like weakness
and the first thing she told me was, “we lost a good man today”
there was never a doubt in my mind
you were destined for heaven
i never once saw your smile without glimpsing some other place
[chorus]
you were a gunslinger
to us you were a legend
i never once heard you speak a word
that wasn’t spoken with love
you were always so sure
that we would make you proud
and i hope you were
i hope you are, now
[verse 3]
to me you were john wayne
plain-spoken and quietly fearless
i remember you best on the porch watching fire streak the sky
is that mesa still standing?
do mountains still line the horizon?
a part of me thought colorado would crumble
when we said goodbye
[chorus]
you were a gunslinger
to us you were a legend
i never once heard you speak a word
that wasn’t spoken with love
you were always so sure
that we would make you proud
and i hope you were
i hope you are, now
