Colorado Christmas |
| Looking out the window of this Hollywood hotel, |
| You’d never know that this was Christmas Eve. |
| The billboards and the neon took the place of silver bells, |
| And the temperature is 84 degrees. |
| But I remember Christmases when I was just a boy |
| In the morning I would run to see the tree. |
| And the carolers on the hillside sang their songs of Christmas joy |
| Well, I always thought they sang them just for me. |
| Now all along the Rockies you can feel it in the air |
| From Telluride to Boulder down below |
| Now the closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere |
| Is a quiet Christmas morning in the Colorado snow |
| I can hear the traffic on the crowded strip below |
| As the palm trees poke their heads above the scene |
| But there’s not a single reindeer and it hardly ever snows, |
| And Santa drives a Rolls Royce limousine. |
| I see the sun is setting in the California sky |
| And I can’t find the spirit anywhere |
| So I think it’s time for me to tell Los Angeles goodbye |
| I’m going back home look for Christmas there |
| Cause all along the Rockies you can feel it in the air |
| From Telluride to Boulder down below |
| Now the closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere |
| Is a quiet Christmas morning in the Colorado snow |
