When the leaves of the Aspen
are turning yellow, turning gold
And when the nights in Denver
are slowly turning cold


My darling, I will remember
when you said, "I love you"
When you said, "I love you"

         

And when the leaves of the Aspen
have fallen to the ground


I will look at our pictures
and remember the love we found

 

And then my tears will flow
when I remember that day

            
When my darling, you passed away
When my darling, you passed away

         

And when the leaves of the Aspen
return in the spring
  

My darling, I'll still be wearing
your precious wedding ring
So my darling as I kneel

   
and I lay flowers upon your grave
I feel our child inside of me
and I try to be brave, I try to be brave

                  

When the leaves of the Aspen
once again turn yellow, turn to gold
I will look at our child
and once again have you to hold

        

So my darling rest in peace
for our love will be complete
when our child comes to life
A part of you and a part of me
A part of you and a part of me

            

When the leaves of the Aspen
are turning yellow, turning gold
When the leaves of the Aspen
are turning yellow, turning gold . . .
