Standing on the mountain,
looking down on the city
The way I feel is a doggone pity
Teardrops are falling down
the mountainside
Many times I've been here
and 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
Weepin' my heart out till
the cold grey dawn
Prayin' that you're lonely
and you'll come here too
Hopin' just by chance
that I'll get a glimpse of you
Tryin' hard to find you
somewhere I love
High on a mountain of love
Mountain of love, the mountain of love,
you should be ashamed
You 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
and a big tall steeple
In side the 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 have gone above
High on a mountain of love
Mountain of love, the mountain of love,
you should be ashamed.
There used to be a mountain of love,
you just changed your name.
Way down below
there's a half a million people.
Somewhere there's a church
and a big tall steeple.
In side the 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 have gone to bed
High on a mountain of love
High on a mountain of love
High on a of love
High on a of love you
