LYRICS:

play intro

It's a long way from L.A. to Denver
It's a long time to hang in the sky
It's along way home to Starwood in Aspen
A sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise


Oh springtime is rollin' 'round slowly
Gray skies are bringin' me down
I 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 to 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 along way home to Starwood in Aspen
My sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
