If you do not have a domicile in Colorado, you do not need to file a CO return.  

Per CO, individuals who abandon their Colorado domicile and become permanent residents of a foreign country no longer have to file Colorado returns. However, they would have to file a Colorado tax return as a nonresident if they had Colorado-sourced income (e.g., rental income). Such individuals bear the burden of proving their abandonment of Colorado residency.
