Description
This is about the umpteenth version of this recorded on various media, and it's still not quite there. Much more laid back on this one, making it all that much more difficult to meld some things, but what the %^$%*&, gotta try something different.
It's a lot of time spent doing a variety of things on a song that had its genesis based on my girlfriend's — now wife's — college town and the phone number off a styrofoam beer coozy I was using one spring at Lake Havasu. Give a listen and lemme know what you think. Danke folks.

Lyrics
Snow falls on the Rockies, outside her window
As she thinks about the letter she has wrote
Far away to Antigua, for summer's gone and broke
Her love lies in the ocean, now she's looking for some rope
Something to tie her herself to the one that got away
Was it only imagination that finally led astray
Promised he would follow before the snow could fall
Snow outside her window tears that guarantee apart
Hold on tight, hold it loose and try to make it last
Bring life back to this sleepy college town
She checks her window hourly for her shadow when she says
You promised you'd come back to the 303
Carolina sunsets after the hurricane's eye
Thinks about her nightly how the time began to fly
Locked in an office, reaching for the clouds
Memories fade as heroes fall and die
Long drives don't seem to ease his weary mind
Fragrant flowers cause the temperature to rise
Never make a promise your heart won't let you keep
Best to let the past go drift off to deeper sleep
Hold it lose, hold it tight give into your better side
Say you've got to go chuck the rest aside
She is waiting by her window and speaks of it again
You promised you'd come back to the 303
Spring time in the Rockies begins to thaw the ice
Water runs beneath her bedroom window sill
Colorado winters can freeze long-distance lines
Sunshine comes around and hope it springs divine
Like an entry to a room where someone forgot the key
Time heals loneliness as the snow fades its way
Clear back to the river and onto the plains
Her love lies waiting across the see again
Hold on tight, hold it loose and try to make it last
Bring life back to this sleepy college town
She checks her window hourly for her shadow when she says
You promised you'd come back to the 303
As she thinks about the letter she has wrote
Far away to Antigua, for summer's gone and broke
Her love lies in the ocean, now she's looking for some rope
Something to tie her herself to the one that got away
Was it only imagination that finally led astray
Promised he would follow before the snow could fall
Snow outside her window tears that guarantee apart
Hold on tight, hold it loose and try to make it last
Bring life back to this sleepy college town
She checks her window hourly for her shadow when she says
You promised you'd come back to the 303
Carolina sunsets after the hurricane's eye
Thinks about her nightly how the time began to fly
Locked in an office, reaching for the clouds
Memories fade as heroes fall and die
Long drives don't seem to ease his weary mind
Fragrant flowers cause the temperature to rise
Never make a promise your heart won't let you keep
Best to let the past go drift off to deeper sleep
Hold it lose, hold it tight give into your better side
Say you've got to go chuck the rest aside
She is waiting by her window and speaks of it again
You promised you'd come back to the 303
Spring time in the Rockies begins to thaw the ice
Water runs beneath her bedroom window sill
Colorado winters can freeze long-distance lines
Sunshine comes around and hope it springs divine
Like an entry to a room where someone forgot the key
Time heals loneliness as the snow fades its way
Clear back to the river and onto the plains
Her love lies waiting across the see again
Hold on tight, hold it loose and try to make it last
Bring life back to this sleepy college town
She checks her window hourly for her shadow when she says
You promised you'd come back to the 303
Doadars Uncle
Well done. Irony!
A little bright on the high end. Perhaps boost the lows a
bit.
