The story behind the song

This song tells the story of a trucker whose life on the road keeps him separated from his lover, with cold weather making their reunion impossible. It captures the bittersweet reality of chasing a dream while a relationship struggles with distance and timing. The co-writer, Wyatt Durrette, drew from his own experience of a relationship that couldn't overcome the demands of his traveling career. It's a poignant exploration of love, ambition, and the sacrifices that come with the pursuit of one's path.

He thinks of Colorado

And the girl he left behind him

And when I close my eyes I see you

No matter where I am

I can smell your perfume through these whispering pines

I'm with your ghost again

It's a shame about the weather

G D

I know soon we'll be together

And I can't wait till then

I can't wait till then
