If they had met they might have found a world of joy
 But she lived on the morning side of the mountain
 And he lived on the twilight side of the hill

 They never met, they never kissed
 And they will never know what happiness they missed
 For she lived on the morning side of the mountain
 And he lived on the twilight side of the hill

 For love's a rose that never grows
 Without the kiss of the morning dew
 And every Jack must have a Jill
 To know the thrill of a dream that comes true

 And you and I are just like they
 For all we know our love is just a kiss away
 But you are on the morning side of the mountain
 And I am on the twilight side of the hill

 For love's a rose that never grows
 Without the kiss of the morning dew
 And every Jack must have a Jill
 To know the thrill of a dream that comes true

 And you and I are just like they
 For all we know our love is just a kiss away
 But you are on the morning side of the mountain
 And I am on the twilight side of the hill
