Blue and Gold (Extended 2)

Intro

First light on the mountain, cold and clear

Boots crunch on the meadow, sunrise drawing near

Cattle trails and memories, morning on the land

Horizon painted softly with a working hand

Chorus

Sierra Nevada morning, blue and bright

Lake Tahoe glimmers under golden light

Mountains stand forever, proud and tall

Calling to my spirit, I hear their gentle call

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh oh

Blue and gold, blue and gold

Verse 2

Wildflowers swaying by the pine tree line

Crystal water shining, feeling so divine

Trails that tell of ages carved into the stone

I found a kind of peace I have never known

Pre-Chorus

Echo through the canyon, eagle on the wing

Simple, sacred wonder, hear the robins sing

Chorus

Sierra Nevada morning, blue and bright

Lake Tahoe glimmers under golden light

Mountains stand forever, proud and tall

Calling to my spirit, I hear their gentle call

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh oh

Blue and gold, blue and gold

Bridge

Sun sets on the valley, shadows growing long

Campfire flickers softly, I hum a working song

Stories from the saddle, passed down through the years

Laughter mingles gently with bittersweet tears

Chorus

Sierra Nevada morning, blue and bright

Lake Tahoe glimmers under golden light

Mountains stand forever, proud and tall

Calling to my spirit, I hear their gentle call

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh oh

Blue and gold, blue and gold

Outro

Footsteps down the gravel, twilight at my back

Memories in my pocket, never looking back

Home is in these ridges, in every breeze that rolls

Westward I keep wandering, carrying their soul
