i had a favourite idol john denver was name
now he has passed on its not quite the same
he loved colorado his favourite place off all
where annies song was written as far as i recall
he wrote it rather quickly ten minutes so they say
while walking up a mountain the lyrics came his way
up on rocky high he just loved to be
where he could compose himself and let his spirit free
now he his in heaven with the angels up above
singing like he used too writing songs of love
