Higher Mountains

You're out there among the stars
It never will seem right
If I could get to where you are
I'd be there tonight

Were you just a dream I had
How am I to know?
I can't hold you in my arms
And I can't let you go

Higher mountains, deeper valleys
Longer rivers stand between us now
I could climb that jagged peak
I could cross that great divide
If I knew that you'd be waiting for me on the other side

The days pass by my window now
Oh, but nights like these are rough
I can feel you in my heart
But that's not close enough

If I could hear you breathe again
The comfort of your sigh
I'd gladly trade tomorrow
On one more last goodbye

Higher mountains, deeper valleys
Longer rivers stand between us now
When I rise above the seas (when you rise above the earth)
And the firmaments collide (and the firmaments collide)
When I pass through Heaven's gateway
Let me enter as your bride (yes, you will enter as my bride)

Bluebonnets in my hair (that I will gather for you there)
That you'll gather for me there

You're out there among the stars
