How high high high high is the mountain when you're lonely it reaches the sky

But when you're in love it don't seem as tall

When you're happy in love there's no mountain at all

Loneliness makes quiet sound rumble and small rivers seem so wide

But love makes the sound so much sweeter

Narrows the river and calms the rushing tide

[ steel - el.banjo ]

Loneliness makes quiet sound...

How high high high high is the mountain hmm
