Val Storey - Boulder to Birmingham

I don't want to hear a love song
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below me
But all that you can show me is the prairie and the sky
I don't want to hear a sad story
Full of heartbreak and desire
The last time I felt like this
I was in the wilderness
The canyons were on fire
And I stood on the mountain
In the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn
I watched it burn
I watched it burn

I would rock my soul
In the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life
In His saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see
I could see your face

Well you really got me this time
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive
And I come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move down on 95
I pretend that it's the ocean
Coming down to wash me clean
To wash me clean
Baby do you know what I mean

I would rock my soul
In the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life
In his saving grace
I would walk all the way
From Boulder to Birmingham
If I could see,
If I could see your face
Oh If I could see
If I could see your face
