It's a long way from LA to Denver
It's a long time to hang in the sky
It's a long way home to Starwood in Aspen
A sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Springtime is rollin' âround slowly
Grey 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
But 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
And 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
But 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
A sweet Rocky Mountain paradise
Oh, my sweet Rocky Mountain paradise

i just found this. wow i love john denver and this song. the audio is is great on this. this is one of those christmas songs that not many people have ever heard. it would be wonderful if another artist would pick this up and spread it around. would love to hear jason castro from american idol do this. thanks for the vid
oh, and that pic at 1:16 is hilarious. thought i knew jd, but i've never seen that one. too too funny!!!

This is now my favorite Christmas song. I love John Denver! But I was so young when he died.
