I'm standing on a mountain looking down on the city The way I feel is a doggone pity Teardrops falling down a mountainside Many times I've been here and many times I've cried We used to be happy when we were in love high on a mountain of love Night after night I've been standing here alone Weeping my heart out till the cold gray dawn Hoping that you're lonely and you'll come here too Hoping just by chance that I'll get a glimpse of you Trying hard to find you somewhere above high on a mountain of love
A mountain of love a mountain of love you should be ashamed We used to be a mountain of love but you just changed your name Way down below there's a half a million people Somewhere there's a church with a great tall steeple Inside the church there's an altar filled with flowers Weddin' bells are ringing and they should have been ours That's why I'm so lonely here up above high on a mountain of love
A mountain of love a mountain of love... High on a mountain of love high on a mountain of love
