"River Colorado" lyrics

I was traveling west along the Colorado
Where that river turns mountains into canyon walls
In a place you can't cross that water at all
For miles and miles

High above the trees
I heard wing beats on the breeze
And I saw a side I'd never seen before
In the bluest sky

I saw an eagle dive
For at least a mile
In a free and wild fall

What a great life to lead
Imagine flying free
All along that river, Colorado

I slept there for the night
As the sun went down
Listened to the music of the river sound
In the canyon

Last winter's snows are flowing down to Mexico
Where the clouds will rise up
And the wind will blow
To water north again

Where the eagle dives
For at least a mile
In a free and wild fall

What a great life to lead
Imagine flying free
All along that river, Colorado

What a great life to lead
Imagine flying free
All along that river
All along that river, Colorado
