Morningside of the Mountain


There was a girl
There was a boy

There was a girl
There was a boy
If they had met they might have found a world of joy
But he lived on the morning side of the mountain
And she lived on the twilight side of the hill

They never met
They never kissed
They will never know what happiness they'd missed
'Cause he lived on the morning side of the mountain (The mountain)
And she lived on the twilight side of the hill

Well love's a rose
That never grows
Without the kiss
Of the morning dew

And every Jack
Must have a Jill
To know the thrill
Of a dream that comes true

And you and I
Are just like they
For all we know our love is just a kiss away
But you are on the morning side of the mountain (The mountain)
And you are on the twilight side of the hill

And you and I (You and I)
Are just like they (Are just like they)
For all we know our love is just a kiss away
But you are on the morning side of the mountain (The mountain)
And you are on the twilight side of the hill
