Mountain
R.O.C Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I walked along the dirt road, I passed a little doe
And she sang to me of the summer
But she couldn't stay for too long, for all good things must go
And leave you standing left to wonder

Her love was higher than the mountain
Her kiss was sweeter than the bloom
Her laugh was richer than the river
Oh but she said, autumn's comin' soon

In the field I see her flowers, and in the sun her rays
They bring me back to that early morning
All this time I've spent on lookin', oh all these countless days
Yet I still can't bring back my darlin'

Her love was higher than the mountain
Her kiss was sweeter than the bloom
Her laugh was richer than the river
Oh but she said, autumn's comin' soon

Her voice carries on the wind with every bird that calls
Years fly by and still I can hear her
All night I lay awake and plead, wishing on the stars
Yet somehow still I'm never near her

Her love was higher than the mountain
Her kiss was sweeter than the bloom
Her laugh was richer than the river
Oh but she said, autumn's comin' soon

Her love was higher than the mountain
Her kiss was sweeter than the bloom




Her laugh was richer than the river
Oh but she said, autumn's comin' soon

During a walk on the dirt road, I encountered a small female deer


And she sang to me of the summer
The doe communicated to me about the summer through her actions


But she couldn't stay for too long, for all good things must go
Even though she wanted to stay, the doe had to leave as that is the way of life


And leave you standing left to wonder
After she left, I was left with curiosity and unanswered questions


Her love was higher than the mountain
The love she gave was immeasurably strong and pure


Her kiss was sweeter than the bloom
Her kiss held more sweetness than the beauty of a flower in full bloom


Her laugh was richer than the river
The sound of her laughter was rich and full, comparable to the flow of a river


Oh but she said, autumn's comin' soon
However, she alerted me that autumn is approaching, and with it, change and loss


In the field I see her flowers, and in the sun her rays
When I am in the field, I can see the flowers she tended to and feel the warmth of the sun that she enjoyed


They bring me back to that early morning

All this time I've spent on lookin', oh all these countless days
I have spent a lot of time looking and searching for something, during countless days

Although years have passed, I can still hear her voice like it was yesterday


All night I lay awake and plead, wishing on the stars
I spend nights lying awake, pleading and making wishes upon the stars


Yet somehow still I'm never near her
Despite my wishes and hopes, I am never able to be near her again


Her love was higher than the mountain
Once more, reiterating that her love was immeasurable


Her kiss was sweeter than the bloom
Once more, reiterating that her kiss held more sweetness than the beauty of a flower in full bloom


Her laugh was richer than the river
Once more, reiterating that the sound of her laughter was rich and full, comparable to the flow of a river


Oh but she said, autumn's comin' soon
One last time, reminding me that autumn is coming and change is inevitable
