LYRICS:

There’s something in the air that lets me know I’m there

I can’t explain exactly what it is

Just further down the road are simpler times, I know,

And the memories of young love not so long ago

So why don’t we head to the Rockies, leave behind the desert

We’ll wind through the Canyon, like the Colorado River

Just shy of Jackson, my heart skips a beat as you say to me:

Why not Wyoming for a while?

Summertime back then would never seem to end

All of our dreams were waiting to begin

Diploma in my hand, yet more to understand

Have patience, my darling, let life unfold its plans

So why don’t we head to the Rockies, leave behind the desert

We’ll wind through the Canyon, like the Colorado River

Just shy of Jackson, my heart skips a beat as you say to me:

Why not Wyoming for a while?

Someday when we’re old, we’ll find the open road

And we’ll remember adventures from the past

Though the years may show, our love will surely grow

With the Tetons over Jenny, shimmering below

So why don’t we head to the Rockies, leave behind the desert

We’ll wind through the Canyon, like the Colorado River

Just shy of Jackson, my heart skips a beat as you say to me:

Why not Wyoming for a while?
