Boulder to Birmingham Songtext
von Aoife O’Donovan

Thank you, Cambridge, thank you so much
This is real dream come true to play for so many people in Cambridge
Thank you so much for coming out to the show
I′ll be back in the area this summer
I'm playing down at Newport Folk Festival (woah)
With these guys (woah)
And, yeah, we′re gonna be around
We're gonna be around (yes)

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
All that it can show me is the prairie and the sky

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

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 knowing I'll survive
I have come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move down out on 95

And pretend that it′s the ocean
Coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean
Baby, do you 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

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


(Woah)
Thank you so much and see you guys next time
Thanks for listening
Anthony Dacosta, Steven Nister
I am Aoife O'Donovan, Thank you so much (woah)
