High Country Snows lyrics

There's a place in the Rockies A place that I know Where the world cannot find me And the time goes so slow. In the piney wood forest There's a flower that grows Through the long months of winter And the high country snows. To a house by a meadow 'Neath the towering peaks Is a place where my heart goes When it's love that it seeks. There a woman lies waiting Like the wild growing rose Through the long months of winter And the high country snows. In the space of a lifetime A man misses much Till he finds him a woman And treasures her touch. When the lakes all are frozen And the wild wind blows I'll return to my darlin' And the high country snows. I'll return to my darlin'
