Boulder to Birmingham
Emmylou Harris
[Verse 1]
I don't want to hear a love song
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below me
But all that it can show me is the prairie and the sky

[Verse 2]
And I don't want to hear a sad story
Full of heartbreak and desire
The last time I felt like this
I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I stood on the mountain
In the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn

[Chorus]
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see, I could see your face
[Verse 3]
Well, you really got me this time
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive
I have come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move down out on ninety five

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And pretend that it's the ocean
Coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean
Baby, do you know what I mean

[Chorus]
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see, I could see your face
If I thought I could see, I could see your face
