I'll be waiting for you to come home I've made my best attempts to prove that to you I've been waiting for you to show up I only hope that I can Keep you safe the whole night through She was born a wild child She grew up in the dirt and rain Just a stones throw away From the train that shook her awake In the middle of the night Oh my darling mountain girl You blurred the Lines and showed me everything was right It's the sweetest song to sing Now that i have found the only one that I'll ever need in my life My dear, I mean every word I placed one knee upon the train track A blood red moon hanging above the two of us
Ill leave my heart there by your bedside If you swear your eyes won't stray from our love Oh my darling mountain girl You closed the blinds and gave me All I'll ever need It's the sweetest song to sing When it's one of love and all the happiness you bring to my life So I'll tell you what We'll move west when the east is won When all our vows are said and done You know you will always be my only one Oh my darling mountain girl Please don't grow tired of me saying I love you so Oh it's the sweetest song to sing This song about our love So I shout it out, below and above, to heaven and hell
