We pulled into Denver, as the sun was lightin' up the Rockies   Checked into a cheap hotel and fell asleep, holdin' each other close   We just knew in our hearts this had to be a new beginning   Well, I guess it goes to show you just how li'l some people know      The first year in Denver, we were as happy as we could be   The good times I remember, we loved and heard, and heard lovin' free   But then she dropped me in Denver, so I know I had at least a mile to fall   Is there life after Denver? Is there life after Colorado at all?      I crawled out of Denver, moved a little higher in the Rockies   Decided I would try my hand, pickin' up the pieces that she left   And Lord, it didn't take long to realize that higher ain't always better   And it's awful cold and lonely when you're king of the mountain   All by yourself      The first year in Denver, we were as happy as we could be   The good times I remember, we loved and heard and heard lovin' free   But then she dropped me in Denver, so I know I had at least a mile to fall   Is there life after Denver? Is there life after Colorado at all?   Lord, is there life after Denver? Is there life after loving her at all?
