Lyrics
As I looked at the valleys down below
They were green just as far as I could see
As my memory returned oh how my heart did yearn
For you and the day that used to be
High on a mountain top wind blowing free
Wondering about the days that used to be
High on a mountain top standing all alone
Wondering where the years of my life have flown
Oh I wonder if you ever think of me
Or if time has blotted out your memory
As I listen to the breeze blow gently through the trees
I'll always cherish what you meant to meAbout This Song
High on a Mountain is a classic Ira and Charlie Louvin gospel song from 1955, later popularized in bluegrass by the Del McCoury Band. Its lonesome, high-harmony style and spiritual themes make it a jam session favorite.
