Owl City - Montana (Alt Version) Lyrics






A fifteen year old kid from St. Paul
Hopped on a train and headed west
Got a job at a St. Mary Restaurant
Washing dishes and making friends
The years went by like the seasons
And they brought him a lifetime of joy
He bought ten or twelve acres of heaven
And a paradise vantage point
And he built a cabin at the foot of the mountains
That stole his heart when he was a boy

On North Fork Road you're almost home

Get lost in Montana
Where your heart can finally roam
Get lost in Montana
Where the mountains call you home
Get lost forever...

His son worked hard in West Glacier
His daughter sold souvenirs
And he always went back to Polebridge
With his family every year
To his green tin roof in the Rockies
And his sky so full of stars
His spirit lives in these mountains

Get lost in Montana
Where your heart can finally roam
Get lost in Montana
Where the mountains call you home
Get lost forever...

Where adventure calls your name
Every moment is worth more than diamonds
When you spend time in the treasure state
So get lost in the Big Sky country

Get lost in Montana
Where your heart can finally roam
Get lost in Montana
Where the mountains call you home
Get lost forever...

  1. P.... P....

    This makes me feel a bit like Sky Sailing

  2. S.... P....

    Adam should make another sky sailing album

  3. A.... K....

    This is so true!

  4. A.... C....

    Coisa boa 🥰

  5. C.... ....

    I have listened to this so many times and it still takes my breath away.

  6. J.... o....

    Is this song about his grandfather by any chance?

  7. D.... C....

    Owl City = Best

  8. l.... i....

    There's a lot of people saying the alt. Versions are a lot better than the originals. This is owl city all of his songs are beautiful. I do enjoy the alt. Versions a lot but each version has its own beauty.

  9. I.... s....

    I love these alternate versions. They're very suited to the nostalgic, reflective content of the Cinematic songs. The audio of the voices only adds to that, it's very sweet and touching. What an awesome song, I hope it touches many hearts and inspires more people to become enchanted with the Rockies.

  10. S.... E....

    The sky sailing vibes are strong with this song! Keep up the great work Adam!

  11. i.... w....

  17. t.... ....

    bring back the 'positive' in music

  18. T.... ....

    Imagine if Owl City listened to his music and said "OK. Let me make alternate version BEFORE I post the original". and once he did he just posts the alternate instead.

  19. B.... f....

    Get lost with bananas...

  20. 4.... ....

    I wish he would release songs as Sky Sailing.

    4.... ....

    I heard he's working on a new Sky Sailing album. Still, that rumor has not been proved true.

  21. I.... A....

    I just miss the old owl city.
    Ocean eyes, of june and maybe I'm dreaming.
    I wish he still makes more songs like his early albums.

  22. U.... ....

    This song speaks of a story deeply rooted in someone's past. I love the sincerity of it.

  35. c.... ....

    sounds like blue and red??

  36. C.... ....

    I love to believe that Owl City music is made from seeing the world as it really is, and all the negativity and struggle in the world is coming from clouded vision. Thanks Adam!

  37. j.... j....

    owl city & Jon Bellion are the only singers i have downloaded all their albums on my phone... wow what an angelic voice

  50. E.... M....

    I'm crying listening to this and I don't know why. It's probably to do with how beautiful it is. I love you Adam. Keep making music

  51. O.... ....

    This has just made me want a whole new Sky Sailing-styled album, how you gonna do us like that Adam

    O.... ....

    He said in an interview that he'd make a 2nd Sky Sailing album, but that was not confirmed.

  52. D.... ....

    The chorus' backing instruments sounds like those from Wolf Bite

  53. N.... O....
