I Can't Go Back to Denver

(album: Mony Mony - 1968)

Chicago is the first stop on the train, yeah
But that don't mean that I won't end up in Maine
I won't let the distance, bring down my resistance

'Cause I can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time
Can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time

Think I'll take in Hollywood and Vine, yeah
Trying, trying to get you off my mind
'Cause the further we're apart, the happier my heart

'Cause I can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time
Can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time

Memphis, if I visit that place down in Tennessee
Well, don't expect no telephone calls from me, no
'Cause if I heard you on the wire, I'd feel that old desire

Now I can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time
Can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time

Can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time
Can't go back to Denver with you on my mind
Can't go back to Denver for a long, long time
