The Colorado Rockies are cool this time of the year And some Little Rock memories are making me wish you were here But you're there in your world with your somebody new by your side You're the first thing that I ever left that I can't leave behind And you're only Oklahoma away I could be there in less than a day But instead of just dreamin' I should be leavin' This is just too close to stay When you're only Oklahoma away The Colorado sun's going down I wish I could rise I'd like to be standing there by your bed when you open your eyes But lying between us is more than just one Great Divide And Oklahoma just might as well be a million miles wide And you're only Oklahoma away I could be there in less than a day But instead of just dreamin' I should be leavin' This is just too close to stay When you're only Oklahoma away And you're only Oklahoma away I could be there in less than a day But instead of just dreamin' I should be leavin' This is just too close to stay When you're only Oklahoma away You're only Oklahoma away
