Mountain Pass

Well, I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight

Those truckers they all flash their lights at me

This highway ain't the very best companion 

?Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be

The moonlight on the snow just sets me thinking

?Bout the way your smile shines upon your face

And I know this ain't the last beer I'll be drinking

Before I reach my final resting place

Oh, I wish that I was in your arms a sleeping

Dreaming of the sweet love we just made

But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight

Wishin' I was in your arms again

Oh my wheels are running hard against this mountain

I finally crossed the Archuleta line

Another hour and I'll be with my darlin'

To dry those lonesome tears that she's been cryin'

Oh, I wish that I was in your arms a sleeping

Dreaming of the sweet love we just made

But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight

Wishin' I was in your arms again

I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight

Those truckers they all flash their lights at me

Well this highway ain't the very best companion 

?Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be

Oh, I wish that I was in your arms a sleeping

Dreaming of the sweet love we just made

But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight

Wishin' I was in your arms again

I am runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight

Wishin' I was in your arms again
