Man On A Mountain

(альбом: AM Country Heaven - 2013)

You're a man on a mountain
You're a mountain of a man
The ridgeline timber
And the palms of your hands
Are too rough and rocky
They're as salty as the land
You're a man up the mountain
You're a mountain of a man

You're a lily of the valley
But the valley keeps you down
I know you long to follow
My lonesome mountain
But you're all wine and roses
You're never leaving town
You're a lily of the valley
But the valley keeps you down

Well once upon a time
We longed to be lovers
Why can't a valley girl
Ever love a mountain man?
Let us not spend out lives
Lying to each other
Let's meet in the middle
Let's never meet again

'Til you make me a promise
I could never be your wife
I ain't never promised no one
A damn thing in my life
I'll live with you forever
But I won't live in sin
Let's meet in the middle
Let's never meet again

Well once upon a time
We longed to be lovers
Why can't a valley girl
Ever love a mountain man?
Let us not spend out lives
Lying to each other
Let's meet in the middle
Let's never meet again

Well I'd buy you a diamond
That I can't afford
Well I don't need no diamond, boy
What are you waiting for?
Get down off that mountain
Girl, come take my hand
Let's meet in the middle
Let's never meet again

Well once upon a time
We longed to be lovers
Why can't a valley girl
Ever love a mountain man?
Let us not spend out lives
Lying to each other
Let's meet in the middle
Let's never meet again

Let us not spend out lives
Lying to each other
Let's meet in the middle
Let's never meet again
