Higher Mountains

You're out there among the stars It never will seem right If I could get to where you are I'd there be there tonight Were you just a dream I had How am I to know? I can't hold you in my arms And I can't let you go Higher mountains Deeper valleys Longer rivers Stand between us now I could climb that jagged peak I could cross that great divide If I knew that you would be waiting on the other side The days pass my window now Oh, but nights like these are rough I can feel you in my heart But that's not close enough If I could hear you breathe again The comfort of your sigh I'd gladly trade tomorrow in On one more last goodbye Higher mountains Deeper valleys Longer rivers Stand between us now [Emmylou (Rodney)] When I rise above the seas (When you rise above the earth) And the Firmaments collide (And the Firmaments collide) When I pass through Heaven's gateway Let me enter as your bride (Yes you will enter as my bride) Bluebonnets in my hair (That I will gather for you there) That you'll gather for me there You're out there among the stars
