Lyrics to Avalanche

Hey you

I wish I could hold you

I just want the old you

Where no-one knew about us



Do you

Want to talk about it?

How they heard all about you

And that it was tragic



The avalanche was too strong

Too strong

The avalanche was too strong

Too strong



And I don't even know how I got home



I took my baby up the mountain

On her way down, carving

The white and gray wide open



The sloping

Opened up and froze shut

The snow collapsed in cover

Heard that she was smothered



We tried to dig her out and all these

Grizzlies and coyotes

Helped me fight the cold freeze



But the avalanche was too strong

Too strong

The avalanche was too strong

Too strong



And I don't even know how I got home



I sat down and wrote my friend a letter

An effort to feel better

Then I'll go and get her



Joshua, I wrote a million dollar

Song about the ski trip

I know he's gonna hear it



The avalanche was too strong

Too strong

The avalanche was too strong

Too strong



And I don't even know how I got home



I got home

I got home

I got home

I got home
