Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Sarah In The Summer Lyrics
Ive driven this road as a strangerIve driven this road as a friendIve driven this road as a slack-jawed touristAnd Im drivin on it once againIt might be cold and long and lonelyBut shes waiting on the other sideAnd Im an hour closer to sarah in the summerAnd joyfully I ride.I climb through georgetown, silver plumeThe tunnel at lovelands cove/cold?The lake on the left is a little lowRoute 9 is the breckenridge road? ?Theres a sign right below copper mountainTelling wheter independence runs free/where the weather & independence run freeAnd Im an hour closer to sarah in the summerAnd thats where I wanna beIn the evening shadow of red butteUp the lane from the slaughter house bridgeThe first cabin the moonlight strikes as it crests the cleft in hunter crick ridgeUp frombetween old red and smugglerRising high on a piano bench thereAnd Im an hour closer to sarah in the summerAnd what lies between bewareWhat lies between, bewareAnd the red sandstone sentinels rising high on either sideAs I follow the eagle valleyThrough the canyon where the saints resideIn mt snowmasss majesty southAnd east out of glennwood springsAnd Im an hour closer to sarah in the summerWhere the roaring river singsWhere the roaring river sings.
