Taylor & Jimmy Van M Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it's hard to get up north this time of year
Up above the treeline, beneath these western skies
Your sweet voice last landed on my ears
And I try to get back as much as I can
To drink with the boys and visit my mother
Being here without you is hard for me to stand,
But there's nothing better than a Wyoming summer
The last time I saw you, we slept out on the ground,
Breathing in that big horn mountain air
When the coyotes started howling, then you started telling
The last stories of yours I'd ever hear
And I try to get back as much as I can,
To drink with the boys and visit my mother
Being here without you is hard for me to stand,
But there's nothing better than a Wyoming summer
There's nothing better than a Wyoming summer

Oh Wyoming, you'll always have my heart
I will always cherish my connections to Wyoming
But it's hard to get up north this time of year
It's difficult to travel to the northern part of Wyoming during this season
Up above the treeline, beneath these western skies
In the mountains under the vast western sky
Your sweet voice last landed on my ears
I remember the last time I heard your comforting voice
And I try to get back as much as I can
I make an effort to return as often as possible
To drink with the boys and visit my mother
To spend time with friends and family
Being here without you is hard for me to stand
It's tough for me to be here without you
But there's nothing better than a Wyoming summer
A Wyoming summer is the best season
The last time I saw you, we slept out on the ground
We camped together the last time we met
Breathing in that big horn mountain air
Taking in the fresh air of the Big Horn Mountains
When the coyotes started howling, then you started telling
You began sharing stories when the coyotes began to howl
The last stories of yours I'd ever hear
The final tales I heard from you
But there's nothing better than a Wyoming summer
A Wyoming summer is the ultimate experience
