    Lyrics
    The old man lived on a mountaintop
    The woman far below
    Friday evenings when the moon was out
    Down the hill he’s go

    Supper on the porch when the nights were mild
    When cold, they’d eat by the fire
    Comfort in the spaces of their solitude
    When love consumes desire

    Their love was quiet passion
    In silence love would speak
    It spoke of twenty years of travel
    Up and down the peak.
    It breathed unspoken promises
    And never said a word
    It hummed a tune of freedom
    Like the sweet song of a bird

    Next morning they’d awaken
    Get dressed and go downstairs
    Put breakfast on the table
    The smell of bacon in the air
    They’d spend a quiet afternoon
    Passion spent but love not stilled
    And in the evenings twilight
    He’d walk back up the hill.

    Chorus

    They knew someday that time would stop
    But neither said the words
    Time is unimportant
    Whenever love is heard
