Lyrics and translation
Original
You believe three years ago.
We were deep in love and deep in snow.
We were stage dive beer and midnight blue. In that queen size bed I swore to you.
We both knew that lie we had to keep.
It's eleven hundred miles from Tennessee to Colorado.
And I'm already there here in my mind.
Got almost everything I need in this packed up El Dorado. Oh Eldora,
I'll be seeing you tonight.
Yeah, I just crossed the Kansas line.
And God, it took me back in time.
When I was headed east instead of west. Just a-holdin' on to doin' my best.
Countin' down them mile marker signs.
It's eleven hundred miles from Tennessee to Colorado.
And I'm already there here in my mind.
Got almost everything I need in this packed up El Dorado.
Oh Eldora, I'll be seeing you tonight.
In the distance I see Denver lights.
Between the pines, Bingham Red Rock Heights.
Even nights like that couldn't save us then. So we said goodbye for what we did.
We were just two kids with too much life to live.
It's eleven hundred miles from Tennessee to Colorado.
And I'm already there here in my mind.
Got almost everything I need in this packed up El Dorado. Oh Eldora,
I'll be seeing you tonight.
