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, shinin' 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 a ramblin' man"
And 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 waitress' eyes he sees the same ol' light is 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 a ramblin' man
And you ain't never gonna change
You got a gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin'", born for leavin'
Well, it's a windin' road when you're in the lost and found
You're a lover, I'm a runner and we go 'round and 'round
And I love you but I leave ya, I don't want you but I need ya
You know it's you that 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
Gotta 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 whisperin' 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
