Itâs a long way from LA to Denver
Itâs a long time to hang in the sky
Itâs a long way home to Starwood in Aspen
A sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Springtime is rollinâ âround slowly
Grey skies are bringinâ me down
I canât remember when Iâve ever been so lonely
I forgot what itâs like to be home
Canât remember what itâs like to be home
But I think on my ladyâs sweet memories
I think on my childrenâs 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
And I tell you Iâm 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
But itâs a long way from this place to Denver
Itâs a long time to hang in the sky
Itâs a long way home to Starwood in Aspen
A sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
