Lyrics

All Around the Mountain
Lee E. Ferrier
I’d walk up to your porch step, your dad would answer the door
I’d be asked inside, your mom would smile to give some support
I’d look around to see if you were close enough to where I could see your face

Gently walking down the stairs your eyes never noticed mine
I realized that you were shy, but how could you be so unkind.
After all I’d been through; just to reach your place

All around the mountain on a cold winters night,
my fear was in the trees, they seemed to move without the light.
I’d tell myself that I was wrong, I’d see your face then move happily along

All around the mountain, not a soul in sight.
Silence seemed to fill my young boys heart with fright.
Then I’d see you smile and move happily along

I’d walk up to your porch step, your dad would answer the door
I’d be asked inside, your mom would smile to give some support
I’d look around to see if you were close enough to where I could see your face

Gently walking down the stairs your eyes never noticed mine
I realized that you were shy, but how could you be so unkind.
After all I’d been through; just to reach your place

All around the mountain on a cold winters night,
my fear was in the trees, they seemed to move without the light.
I’d tell myself that I was wrong, I’d see your face then move happily along

All around the mountain, not a soul in sight.
Silence seemed to fill my young boys heart with fright.
Then I’d see you smile and move happily along

All around the mountain just to reach your place
All around the mountain just to see your face

All around the mountain just to reach your place
All around the mountain just to see your face
