If rain will fall high up here upon the mountain Grass will grow and shepherds will be thankful And our love will cover up all the mountain For time is like a promise - It tries all your strength to keep to. Before she came I lived alone upon the mountain The raven heard your voice high upon the wind Then one day you came to me upon the mountain For time is like a promise - It tries all your strength to keep to. The sun goes down and shadows soon are interweaving But she lies so deep inside my love surrounds her Time will outdo us, this I only know too well For time is like a promise - It tries all your strength to keep to.
