The Mountain Is My Mistress Lyrics

Verse 1:
I could see the longing look in your eyes
This morning when I kissed you all goodnight
And I know you want and need me here at home
And you wonder why I leave you all alone
Chorus:
The mountain is my mistress
And she'll always come between us
And I'm wrapped inside her arms tonight
In this Idaho wilderness
I'm faithful to you more or less
But I've gotta get this off my chest
It's somethin' girl you'll just have to accept The mountain is my mistress

Verse 2:
There are some things that are too hard to explain
And I never meant to cause you so much pain
And I know that it's not right to lead her on
But with the changin' of the weather I'll be gone

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
And I know that she's tearing us apart
And it's killin' me to know that I am breakin' your heart
Final Chorus
