My love lives way up on the mountain
way up on the golden mountain
my love lives way up on the mountain
and I don’t think I’ll see him anymore.
I’ll never go back up that mountain
the winding way where I can’t stay
no I’ll never go back up that mountain
and I don’t think I’ll see him anymore
Have you ever heard a lonesome owl cry
high above a city night
have you ever heard a lonesome owl cry
well I don’t think I’ll hear that anymore
That’s cuz my love lives way up on the mountain
way up on the golden mountain
my love lives way up on the mountain
and I don’t think I’ll see him anymore
Last night I dreamed of western canyons
and there we walked hand in hand
last night I dreamed of western canyons
and I don’t think I’ll see him anymore
I’ll live my life here in the flatlands
working hard doing the best I can
I’ll live my life here in the flat lands
and I don’t think I’ll see him anymore
My love lives way up on the mountain
way up on the golden mountain
my love lives way up on the mountain
and I don’t think I’ll see him anymore
