Lyrics
It's a long way from L.A. to Denver
It's a long time to hang in the sky
It's a long way home to Starwood in Aspen
My sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Springtime is rollin' 'round slowly
Gray skies are bringin' me down
Can't remember when I've ever been so lonely
I forgot what it's like to be home
Can't remember what it's like to be home
I think on my lady's sweet memories
I think on my children's sweet smiles
I think on my home in Starwood in Aspen
All my friends and the snow covered hills
Oh, my friends are the snow covered hills
Can I tell you I'm happy to be here?
To share and consider this time
For I see here the shadows of changes
And a feeling of new friends to find
And I see here some new friends to find
It's a long way from this place to Denver
It's a long time to hang in the sky
It's a long way home to Starwood in Aspen
My sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
