Time passes slowly up here in the mountains
We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains
Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream
Time passes slowly when you re lost in a dream.
Once I had a sweetheartshe was fine and good-lookin
We sat in her kitchen while her mama was cookin
Stared out the window to the stars high above
Time passes slowly when you re searchin for love.
Ain t no reason to go in a wagon to town
Ain t no reason to go to the fair.
Ain t no reason to go upain t no reason to go down
Ain t no reason to go anywhere.
Time passes slowly up here in the daylight
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Like the red rose of summer that blooms in the day
Time passes slowly and fades away.
