    *** unconfirmed ***

    High and dry in the hills of California
    Where no dreams ain't dealing you one good hand
    Won't you help us get to El Dorado?
    Cuz we're still here doing the best we can

    So all you, step aside when you ain't got much to lose
    Well after you, I'll be walking in your shoes
    Through Vail days and nights, Denver afternoons
    After you, and I'm sure we'll get there soon
    Howl at the moon of Colorado shinin' down on me
    Shinin' down on me
    Howl at the moon, take me with ya
    Shinin' down on me, shinin' down on me

    By now the glacier's been displaced
    Steelheads and rainbows run their route around the space
    I rose to find you standing tall
    One night you're stumbling and the next I watch you fall
    [It's in your court now that I stood to watch you fall]

    When you're caught beneath the crag, and tumblin' 'cross the dune
    Up to you, yes that choice is yours to choose
    The Pennsylvania ties, the Garden City blues
    What will you do once the wolves have called the tune?

    Howl at the moon of Colorado shinin' down on me
    Shinin' down on me
    Howl at the moon, take me with ya
    Shinin' down on me, shinin' down on me

    Someday, somehow, gonna get it together
    One way or another, gonna make it better now
    Later on, when the stars are hanging low
    And the fiddle come up slow
    Someday, somehow, gonna get it together
    One way or another, gonna make it better now
    Later on, when the light is all died down
    Listen up, you can hear it all around
    Awooooooooo!

    Howl at the moon of Colorado shinin' down on me
    Shinin' down on me
    Howl at the moon, take me with ya
    Shinin' down on me
