lyrics

CHORUS:
The lights twinkle like stars on the mountainside
And the clouds gather like gods hovering above
Blossoms pink, yellow and blue roll past the columbine
This thin air breathes a little bit thicker when you're in love
This thin air breathes a little bit thicker when you're in love

Life without love is living
in that lonesome valley
Where the cold, cold wind blows down
from the mountaintop
Life without love is living
in that shady canyon
Where the sun never shines
and the temperature sinks like my heart

CHORUS

When it rains it pours
The way I'd like to pour
all over you
Without rain we are poor
If the sun always shines
how will we ever know what is true?

CHORUS

And the cool, clear pool
frosts over
much to Narcissian dismay
How to play
with that eye turned inward?
Skate along with my shadows
They follow me anyway
Everyday
Can our shadows skate together?

CHORUS

END
