Mountain Angel

[Chorus]
Mountain angel, mountain angel
So near and yet so far

[Verse 1]
She's out in the meadow , she walks in the morn
Before the night's over and the day not yet born
She talks to the stars, she belongs to the sky
She sings like a thrush all through the night

[Chorus]
Mountain angel, mountain angel
So near and yet so far

[Verse 2]
If I knew her name, what it would reveal?
I can't say for sure if she's even for real
The last time I saw her, she walked through the storm
Now I long for a glimpse of her heavenly form

[Chorus]
Mountain angel, mountain angel
So near and yet so far

[Verse 3]
She whispers so sweetly to me in my sleep
Up in this cabin, the only company I keep
Am I holding it together? Am I losing my mind?
I swear I can feel her through this thin veil of time

[Chorus]
Mountain angel, mountain angel
So near and yet so far

[Outro]
Mountain angel, mountain angel
Whoever you are
