On  top of a mountain  top I stood  and thought one day
I  really could see  a lot and if  I had my way
A  lazy young sod,  I was so deep  in love those days
As  if there was nothing  left, but only  love I crave
And  so I didn't know  as much, her loving  touch amazed
I  was so gone  with love the alphabet  was a haze
So  alone as she pulls  away the funeral  truck, I cried
I  watched the clouds dissapear  like a lost  christmas that day
And  now I can't seem  to cope but only  hope it be okay
If  I could just see  her again and we  could be friends like way back when
It's  as if I'm already  dead and in  my grave I lay
If  only her love could save  me now, and if  somehow she'd stay...
