I climb to the mountain, to the top of the mountain
and nine hours later I stop in despair
I try to envision the face of the girl
but she's so far away from the top of the world
she's the girl I love
this dark and cold of winter makes me so lonely
so sad and lonely in this dark room
and then for one moment, a deep and warm embrace
and nine hours later, she waits for me
she's the girl I love
at least for awhile, this all fades away
this all fades away
and nine hours later I stop in despair
I try to envision the face of the girl
but she's so far away from the top of the world
she's the girl I love
this dark and cold of winter makes me so lonely
so sad and lonely in this dark room
and then for one moment, a deep and warm embrace
and nine hours later, she waits for me
she's the girl I love
at least for awhile, this all fades away
this all fades away
