Maggie Reilly Cold The Snow Clad Mountains lyrics

I walk along the shore looking out across the sea
And think of my true lover who's gone to far from me
So many years have passed since we said our last goodbyes
But still I can't forget. His smile

Cold the snow clad mountain
Where the golden eagle flies
On the west wind blowing
Out across the endless skies
Cold the snow clad mountain
Where the moon hangs in a velvet sky
Look and you will find me
Where the wind forever cries

My love he sailed away on the early morning tide
His fortune in some far-off land

He hoped that he would find
He promised to return, so I'll wait forever more
I know he'll come to find me someday
Cold the snow clad mountain
Where the golden eagle flies
On the west wind blowing
Out across the endless skies
Cold the snow clad mountain
Where the moon hangs in a velvet sky
Look and you will find me
Where the wind forever cries
