Standin' on the mountain lookin' down on the city.
The way I feel is a doggone pity.
Teardrops fallin' down the mountainside.
Many times I've been here, many times I've cried.
We used to be so happy, here up above,
High on a mountain of love.

Night after night I've been standin' here alone.
Weepin' my heart out till cold, gray dawn.
Hopin' 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 up above,
((High on a mountain of love.))

A mountain of love, a 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 with a great tall steeple.
Inside the church there's an altar full of flowers.
Wedding bells are ringing and they shouldda been ours.
That's why I'm so lonely, here up above.
High on a mountain of love.

You should be ashamed.
You used to be a mountain of love,
But you just changed your name.

Inside the church there's an altar full of flowers.

((High on a mountain of love.))
((High on a mountain of love.))
