Lyrics The Hollies

The Hollies

Boulder to Birmingham

I don't wanna hear your love song

I got on this aeroplane just to fly

And I know there's life below me

But all that you can show me

Is the prairie and the sky

And I don't wanna 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

And I stood on the mountain

In the night and I watched it burn

I watched it burn, I watched it burn

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

Well, you really got me this time

And the hardest part is knowin

I'll survive

I've come to listen for the sound

Of the trucks as they go down

Out on ninety-five

And pretend that it's the ocean

Comin down to wash me clean

To wash me clean

Baby do ya know what I mean

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
