Lyrics
On the Mountain Top
Verse 1
Sometimes you know we barely had a dollar
Sometimes you know we barely had a cent
But you were there for me
Said you’d love me endlessly
And it didn’t matter how it all was spent
The nights outside when you and I went camping
You always knew I couldn’t pitch a tent
But I was there for you
Nothing that I wouldn’t do
And I can’t remember where the time went
Chorus
Up on the mountain top with you
Up on the mountain top with you
Now baby don’t you cry, I’ll be with you til’ we die
On the mountain top with you.
Verse 2
Some days you know I barely even saw you
Some days you know our calendars were full
But when I went to sleep
I could hold you close to me
And that’s all it took for me to feel whole
The way I felt when you first said I love you
The way I felt when we exchanged our rings
I’m lucky love is blind
I’m so thankful that you’re mine
And the only thing I know to do is sing
Repeat Chorus
Verse 3 (repeat Verse 1 with “And I can’t tell you how much that meant”)
Repeat Chorus x 3
Now baby don’t you cry for me
I’ll be right there with you right there with you
On the mountain top with YOU
