She´d trade Colorado if he´d take her with him
Closes the door before the winter lets the cold in,
And wonders if her love is strong enough to make him stay,
She´s answered by the tail lights shining through the window pane

He said I wanna see you again
But I´m stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then?
She said you´re ramblin´ man
You ain´t ever gonna change
You got a gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin´.

At a truck stop diner just outside of Lincoln,
The night is black as the coffee he was drinkin´,
And in the waitress´ eyes he sees the same ol´ light a-shinin´,
He thinks of Colorado and the girl he left behind him

He said I wanna see you again
But I´m stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then?
She said you´re ramblin´ man
You ain´t ever gonna change
You got a gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin´ (born for leavin´)

Well, it´s a winding road
When you´re in the lost and found
You´re a lover – I´m a runner
And we go ´round ´n ´round
And I love you but I leave you
I don´t want you but I need you
You know it´s you who calls me back here, baby

Oh I wanna see you again
But I´m stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then?
Cause I´m a ramblin´ man
I ain´t ever gonna change (I ain´t ever gonna change)
I got a gypsy soul to blame
And I was born for leavin´ (born for leavin´)

When I close my eyes I see you
No matter where I am
I can smell your perfume through these whispering pines
I´m with your ghost again
It´s a shame about the weather
But I know soon we´ll be together
And I can´t wait ´til then
I can´t wait ´til then
