Standing on the mountain looking down on a 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 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 till cold grey 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 here above
High on a mountain of love
The mountain of love, the mountain of love
You should be ashamed
You used to be a mountain of love
But you sure changed your name
Way down below there's a half a million people
Somewhere there's a church with a great tall steeple
Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers
Wedding bells are ringing and it should have been ours
That's why I'm so lonely, here up above
High on a mountain of love
The mountain of love, the mountain of love
You should be ashamed
You used to be a mountain of love
But you sure changed your name
Way down below there's a half a million people
Somewhere there's a church with a great tall steeple
Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers
Wedding bells are ringing and it should have been ours
That's why I'm so lonely, here up above
High on a mountain of love
High on a mountain of love
High on a mountain of love
