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 W ith tears in her eyes, she said her last goodbye And stepped right back into his arms again
