I was holed up out in Denver in the snow Some sense of adventure left but nowhere else to go On an endless highway Howlin' in my room Howlin' in my ear Howlin' in my soul I stayed up all night to watch a new sunrise Lit up the Rocky Mountains, and I realized You never really leave home You can run But you never lose the world that you are from Over the border we must cross Over the walls and damn the cost Over the border for our sins With the spirit of the people who light a fire in the wind Crossed the backbone of the continent Down to the ocean's moan Gave myself up to its healing Felt like I had always known You can run But you never lose the world that you are from Over the border we must cross Over the walls and damn the cost Over the border for our sins With the spirit of the people who light a fire in the wind You can run But you never lose the world that you are from Over the border we must cross Over the walls and damn the cost Over the border for our sins With the spirit of the people who light a fire in the wind You can run But you never lose the world that you are from Find the ridge that we could cross Find the love that we had lost Count the lives and clean the cause With the spirit of the people who light a fire in the wind
