Chorus
It's another winter's day in Colorado
Beneath a silver sky
Another winter's day in Colorado
One blue sky moment, turns to gentle snow.
1. Last week the ice was thick and solid on the lake
Young and old strapped on their blades to glide and skate
The sun grew warm, white sky turned blue,
the green ice turned to clear
and the sign changed to say it wasn't safe to skate
anymore around here.
2. Warming earth beneath the gaze of bright winter sun
the tawny tan of everything that once was green
Only marks the moments between the growing seasons
And the birds that brightly sing, an early foretaste of Spring.
Bridge:
Shirtsleeves tempt the hurried to repack their coats,
Store the boots and gloves and hats away.
Yet like a friendly prank, the breezes shift
and rain begins to mist
and slowly it thickens, a downy mantle, snowy white.
