Irish '60s Lyrics - High As A Mountain

High As A Mountain
Recorded by Brendan Arnold & The Royal Blues on Pye

They say that too much water has run under the bridge
That we never can live down the past;
That once your love has ended, it never can return
But that's not so for we both know that our love will last.

High as a mountain, deep as the sea
Tall as the tallest, tallest tree;
That's how much I love you, that's how much you love me
High as the mountains, deep as the sea.

It might be they're just jealous and don't want to understand
That our love will pass the test with room to spare,
But it's just their conscience talking of their broken dreams and plans
For it shows and we both know that our love is fair.

High as the mountain...

(Original recording by Buck Owens, 1962)
