Verse 1
Big jet engines are roaring, leave Seattle behind
My job keeps me running, it's Colorado this time
Looking down on the city, there's no beauty today
I know you're down there somewhere
As I'm flying away, but..
Chorus
When I am west bound
I don?t mind the view
When I'm coming back from Denver
A mile high on you
Verse 2
The sun has been shining, the weather's been clear
They say that's good for Denver, this time of year
When I took off this morning, snow was starting to fall
I hear it?s raining in Seattle
It's no bother at all, 'Cause..
Chorus
When I am west bound
I don't mind the view
When I'm coming back from Denver
A mile high on you

I've been away and I've been down
Now I'm getting higher the closer
This plane gets too the ground
Verse 3
Outside my window, clouds full of rain
Coming down on Seattle, I won't complain
I can see the horizon, blue skies coming in
By the time I'm back in your arms
They'll be sunshine again
Chorus
When I am west bound
I don't mind the view
When I'm coming back from Denver
A mile high on you

Coming back from Denver, a mile high on you
Coming back from Denver, a mile high on you
