A Cliff In Colorado

They got married on a mountaintop in Denver

Just a preacher and a few of their best friends

They said, 'I do', and then he gently kissed her

He whispered "If I die tonight, I'll die a happy man"

They made a lot of memories together

They came back to that mountain every year

With his head in her lap, he'd smile and tell her

"Baby if I go before you, bring me right back here"

On a cliff in Colorado

The story ends right where it all began

On a cliff in Colorado

With tears in her eyes, she said her last goodbye

And let his ashes fly into the wind

Some say she heard his voice softly whisper

And followed it right out into the cold

They all say that no one went up with her

But at the top they found two sets of footprints in the snow

On a cliff in Colorado

The story ends right where it all began

On a cliff in Colorado

With tears in her eyes, she said her last goodbye

And stepped right back into his arms again

On a cliff in Colorado

The story ends right where it all began

On a cliff in Colorado

With tears in her eyes, she said her last goodbye

And stepped right back into his arms again
