lyrics

Meet me at the top of the mountain, love.
We’ll stay up late and talk ‘round the fire.
We’ll laugh at all the tales we’ve yet to tell
of dreams and schemes we played so well.

Meet me at the top of the mountain, love.
We’ll make a home of this unlikely heaven.
We’ll watch that fierce and fickle wind blow
leaves and dreams across the fields below.

They dance much the same way we’re moving
across this hardscrabble wooden floor.
The crowd is getting drunker by the minute,
our boots beneath the table, my hand in yours.

We slowly step in circles. The band plays a song,
an ode to this old bar in Somewhere, Alaska.
If you leave before me, I’ll ask you love,
to meet me at the top of the mountain.
Meet me at the top of the mountain.
Meet me at the top.
