Mountain Top - Daniel Johnston, Mark Linkous

On top of a mountain top

I stood and thought one day

I really could see a lot

And if I had my way

A lazy young sod I was

So deep in love those days

As if there was nothing was

But only love I crave

And so I didn’t know as much

Her loving touch amazed

I was so gone with love

The alphabet was a haze

So alone as she pulls away

The funeral truck I cried

I gazed the clouds away

Like a lost Christmas that day

And now I can’t seem to cope

But only hope some way

Just to see her once more

And we could be friends like way back when

It’s as if I’m already dead

And in my grave I lay

If only her love could save me now

And if somehow she’d stay
