High on a Rocky Ledge (feat. Erin Rae)

High on a rocky ledge lives a mädel, Edelweiß
Shy as a shadow, lovely as lace, and cold as ice
High on a rocky ledge, I pledge my love to her
Every time I climb up to Paradise

How many times I've been up to see her, goodness knows
Huffin' and puffin', dressed in the warmest climbin' clothes
How many chances would be taken in my
Hopeless pursuit of the Schnee-Mädel-Edelweiß

Then spoke a spirit, "If you would win your Lady Love"
There's only one way, fall to your death from high above
You will begin to grow in snow beside the one
You have waited for to be mated with

Now, I'm an Edel, vice to my Mädel, Edelweiß
Dyin' to be with her wasn't any sacrifice
We're so deliriously happy on our ledge
Where I pledge my love to my Lady Fair

You who are climbin' breathless to see me and my love
Snow flowers growin' fonder on Lover's Ledge above
If you've the yen to pluck, then pluck us both
For we who have lived as one wish to die as one
