Boulder To Birmingham (Live)

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 it can show me
Is the prairie and the sky

And 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 and the canyon was 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 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
I [bad word] to listen for the sound
Of the [bad word] as they move down
Out on ninety five
And pretend that it's the ocean [bad word] down to wash me clean, to wash me clean
Baby do you know what I mean
