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'd be waiting for me 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

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
