Mountain Of LoveJohnny RiversWritten by Harold DormanPeak chart position # 9 in 1964Original by writer Dorman hit # 21 in 1960Ronnie Dove's version managed # 67 in 1968Standing on a mountain looking down on a cityThe way I feel is a doggone pityTeardrops fallin' down a mountainsideMany times I've been here, many times I've criedWe used to be so happy when we were in loveHigh on a mountain of loveNight after night I'm a-standing here aloneWeepin' my heart out till cold gray dawnPrayin' that you're lonely and you come here tooHoping just by chance that I'll get a glimpse of youTryin' hard to find you, somewhere up aboveHigh on a mountain of loveA mountain of love, a mountain of love, you should be ashamedWe used to be a mountain of loveBut you just changed your nameWay down below there's a half a million peopleSomewhere there's a church with a big tall steepleInside a church there's an altar filled with flowersWedding bells are ringin' and they shoulda been oursThat's why I'm so lonely, my dreams gone aboveHigh on a mountain of loveA mountain of love, a mountain of love, you should be ashamedWe used to be a mountain of loveBut you just changed your nameWay down below there's a half a million peopleSomewhere there's a church with a big tall steepleInside a church there's an altar filled with flowersWedding bells are ringin' that shoulda been ours>>>>That's why I'm so lonely, ???? from above
