Standing on the 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
Many times I've cried
We used to be so 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 to cold gray dawn
Praying that you're lonely and [bad word] here too
Hoping just by chance that I get a glimpse of you
Trying hard to find you
Somewhere I love
High on a mountain of love.

mountain of love
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 big tall steeple
Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers
Wedding bells are ringing and they should have been ours
That's why I'm so lonely
My dreams gone above
High on a mountain of love.

(Musical interlude)

mountain of love
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 big tall steeple
Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers
Wedding bells are ringing that should have been ours
That's why I'm so lonely
My dreams gone above
High on a mountain of love.

High on a mountain of love.
High on a mountain of love.
High on a mountain of love (fade)
