(Harold Dorman - W. Gann)
I'm standing on a 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 and many times I've cried.
We used to be 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 the cold gray 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 above
High on a mountain of love.
A mountain of love, a 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 great tall steeple
Inside the church there's an altar filled with flowers
Weddin' bells are ringing and they should have been ours.
That's why I'm so lonely here up above
High on a mountain of love.
A mountain of love, a mountain of love
You should be ashamed
We used to be a mountain of love
But you just changed your name.
High on a mountain of love.
High on a mountain of love...
