Cold Mountain Songtext
von The Pentangle

Cold mountains they are here around me
Cold waters rollin′ down the stream
Often in my sleep I think I see you
But when I wake it's just a dream
I′ve often thought, I've often wondered
What makes young women love young men
They're like the stars on a summer mornin′
First they′ll appear and then they're gone
I′d rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun don't ever shine


Than to see you with another
And know you never would be mine
I′ve wandered down your lonesome highways
I've chased the stars most of my days
I′m goin' back to East Virginia
The place where I was born and raised
Cold mountains they are here around me
Cold waters rollin' down the stream
Often in my sleep I think I see you
But when I wake it′s just a dream
