Song Lyrics

Mile High Feeling

album: Keepin' Time by the River (1998), track 11 of 12
author: Chuck Pyle
publisher: Bee 'n' Flower Music BMI

Out of the city
Up into the state
Where nothing matters
Everything can wait
Walls and ceilings
All been feeling like jail
That creek water
Tastes like wine
My inner rattlesnake's unwinding
I'm downloading, off-roading
Breaking new trail
 CHORUS
   I got a mile-high feeling
   That Rocky Mountain
   Kind of free-wheeling
   Way of dealing with life's
   Easy-come, easy-go
   Out of my mind, into my senses
   Makin' love and tearing down fences
   I'm jump-starting my heart into letting go
Letting go is only half the battle
Running races with my shadow
Me and my shadow
Every step of the way
My top's down I'm comin' alive
Southbound down 285
Baby, I need a high country hideaway
 CHORUS
     Cast your line upon the water
     And make a wish
     Work is for people
     Who don't know how to fish
 CHORUS
