VERSE: Wouldn't take much at all to send me a letter You could write of the weather, I don't think I'd care Cus I've been out searching, wandering with reason It's defined by the seasons, always up in the air Can't take back the heartbreak those sweet lies or mistakes No there's nothing to say dear, the damage is done Chorus: And It's a long way to Denver, it's a longways to go To see you there, in that damn purple chair Talking about places you'll go And it must be nice to not know the price of the damage you've done to my soul
It's a long way to Denver, It's a long long way to go. VERSE: just as I predicted, when I least expected I found myself afflicted, found myself on my own and I've grown tired dear, of tipping and toeing guess it's time to get going, yeah it's time to move on CHOruS: And It's a long way to Denver, it's a longways to go To see you there, in that damn purple chair Talking about places you'll go And it must be nice to not know the price of the damage you've done to my soul It's a long way to Denver, It's a long long way to go.
