Surf Colorado Lyrics


I saw you there, your long brown hair
Falling on your face, the way it used to fall on mine
At one time, a long time ago
I still remember everything you said to me that night
It's too bad and it's too late
You were such a big mistake
Please, don't call me anymore
I used to miss you
There's no surf in Colorado anyway
And it's a shame to hear you're happy
And you still look at me that way
There's no surf in Colorado anyway, yeah
She never waved at me or said "Good-bye"
One night, she just left me and her behind
There she goes and no one knows
What she does to my heart, still, she'll never know
How we speak across the room
Eye to eye, she's holding him, holding me soon

It's too bad and it's too late
Was it such a big mistake?
You don't call me anymore
And I still miss you
There's no surf in Colorado anyway
And it's a shame to hear you're happy
And you still look at me that way
There's no surf in Colorado anyway, yeah
She never waved at me or said "Good bye"
One night, she just left me and her behind
Remember the first time, goddamn, we got so high
She held me so close that I thought that I might break
And now she's a mile high and I'm on Texas time
She traded rattlesnakes for bunny runs in Colorado Springs
Yeah, there's no surf in Colorado anyway
And it's a shame to hear you're happy
And you still look at me that way
There's no surf in Colorado anyway, yeah
She never waved at me or said "Good-bye"
One night, she just left me and her behind

Bowling for Soup (acronym: BFS, or sometimes B4S) is a pop punk band based in Denton, Texas (but originally from Wichita Falls, Texas) formed in 1994 from the ruins of an old metal band. Quoting Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, "we wanted to make happy music". They're known for their often humorous lyrics, upbeat guitar riffs, and Jaret's distinctive voice.

They are best known for their singles "Girl All The Bad Guys Want" in 2002 on Drunk Enough To Dance which was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award for "Best Pop Performance by a Group or Duo" and "1985" (originally written by Mitch Allan of SR-71) in 2004 on A Hangover You Don't Deserve. Speaking with Songfacts about "Girl All The Bad Girls Want" in a 2010 interview, Reddick said: "'Girl All The Bad Guys Want' was my very first co-write ever, and me and Butch Walker sat in a room and literally wrote that song in 30 minutes. I mean, it was done."

The band's name is derived from comedian Steve Martin's "Bowling for Sh*t" routine from his 1978 comedy album, Wild and Crazy Guy, itself a reference to Bowling for Dollars. Jaret Reddick has also stated that at the end of his last performance with his old band one of the members came on stage and proclaimed "Come back next week when we play with our new band... Bowling For Soup!". This was supposed be to be joke name, but since they couldn't think of anything better the name stuck. Their single '1985' can be found on the UK and the Norwegian editions of Singstar Rocks for the PS2.

They have also became hits on Radio Disney with edits of "1985", "Punk Rock 101", "High School Never Ends", and the inclusion of their version of "I Melt With You" in the Disney movie "Sky High". They have also written and recorded "Today Is Gonna Be A Great Day" as the theme song for Disney's "Phineas and Ferb"
